2010 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Legroom felt narrow for passenger over tranny tunnel. see full Lexus IS review

6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Lousey seats: uncomfortable and build is cheap and not conforming to human posture. But, seems last several years most cars have lousey, cheap and uncomfortable seats. see full Lexus IS review

Cramped rear seat. Minimal knee and leg room when there is a front driver/passenger. Minimal room for the toddler when sitting in a car seat. Seats 2 small kids at best. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
This is a small car. Interior seating is comfortable but tight. Unless the driver is very short, forget about the back seat. see full Lexus IS review

Don't buy this car if you ever plan on carrying four adults. see full Lexus IS review

Yeah, the back is small but still big enough to handle for the poor rear seat passengers. see full Lexus IS review

2014 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 0 I was expecting zero room in the back, but I sat in the backseat even with the drivers seat adjusted far back (I'm 5'11" but long legs and tend to adjust seats to the back end of their travel), I had reasonable legroom for a very compact car. The seat covering material was pleasant as well. see full Nissan Versa review

Even with the front seats slid all the way back, this car still has more room than almost any other car -- almost as much room as a BMW 780IL. see full Nissan Versa review

When I bought the car, I laid the seat down all the way to make sure it would be comfortable enough to nap on.  It is, but it's slightly more comfortable if the car is parked on an incline because the seat doesn't quite go down completely flat... although come to think of it I haven't tried raising the seat height with the lever then setting the seat back.  Anyway, the passenger side doesn't have a seat height adjustment lever and it doesn't quite make a 180% flat angle either. see full Nissan Versa review
