TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Lexus IS
| 2014 Lexus IS Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | Following the Germans' lead, many car makers have been fitting firmer and firmer seats. Cadillac might have once been known for seats you could sink deep into, but those in the ATS are the opposite, with too little give and contours that are far from form-fitting. No fear, Lexus hasn't done the same with the IS. Even the more heavily bolstered seats that are part of the F Sport package lack hard points, which helps them provide a slop-free fit for a wide range of body types. (Oddly, you'll find seats similar to these in some Chrysler people haulers.) Personally, I wouldn't mind a little firmer support, but then I also prefer a firm mattress. Notably, the lumbar support in the Lexus IS is only two-way and the spread of the side bolsters is not adjustable. For four-way lumbar support and adjustable side bolsters (plus somewhat firmer support) you need to step up to the larger Lexus GS. see full Lexus IS review | |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Smaller than the Maxima. Third person would be uncomfortable, less knee room. The plastic trough behind the front seat is too low. see full Infiniti G review |
| 2010 | 2dr Hardtop conv. 325-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The rear seat is basically a storage area. No one can sit back there! But its really no different than the rear of any convertible. (like my Mercedes Benz CLK350) see full Infiniti G review |

Seats in back are cramped. Once the kids hit teenage years they are not going to be happy back there for long rides. see full Infiniti G review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Seems smaller than the G35, no rear reclining seats anymore and the headrests stick up a bit more than the old car. see full Infiniti G review |
