TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Lexus ES
2019 |
From 2014 on Mazdas have had their front wheels located farther from the passenger compartment than the typical front-wheel-drive car. This opens up space for larger exhaust manifolds behind the engine, for improved performance and efficiency. It also gives the cars more attractive, rear-wheel-drive-like proportions.
But it has a price: reduced rear legroom.
The Lexus ES provides rear seat passengers with much more room to stretch their legs. Sitting in the rear seat, I can barely reach the front seatback with an outstretched arm. While the first few generations of the Lexus ES were related to the Toyota Camry, the 2013 and 2019 are related to the larger Toyota Avalon.
This said, I should also note that the rear seat cushion is the Lexus is mounted somehwat low to the floor, so rear seat passengers also have more need to stretch out if they desire under-thigh support. The new Lexus ES is the sleekest and sportiest to date, and sporty rear roof line's also have a price.

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Cadillac ELR
2014 |
Both cars have comfortable front seats, but the ELR's provide more lateral support, at least with the $2,450 brown interior option (which adds power adjusters to their modestly sized side bolsters).
Front seat access isn't among the ELR's strengths. As is often the case with coupes, the doors are long and heavy.

2014 Cadillac ELR Seat Room and Comfort: Cons |
Year | Comment |
|
The Volt's rear seat is pretty tight. The Cadillac ELR's is even tighter. At 5-9, I barely have enough space for my head and knees, and this when sitting behind someone my own size. Put someone taller in the front seat, and even pre-teens will have trouble squeezing into the back seat. This being a two-door, rear seat access is also dicey.
The Tesla's rear seat is far roomier than either GM car's. Plus a rear-facing third row is optional.
