TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Lexus NX

| Year | Comment | |
| 2015 | In F Sport form the Lexus NX is fitted with aggressively bolstered front bucket seats that provide considerably more lateral support than the front seats in the Lincoln. As long as your torso fits easily between these bolsters, comfort is also very good, with cushier padding than you'll find in German competitors. The MKC's seats fit my particular form a little better, though. see full Lexus NX review | |

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle
| 2014 Volkswagen Beetle Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| Back in the 1960s VW entreated Americans to "think small." Lately, though, the German manufacturers cars have been getting bigger and bigger. The latest redesign added over two inches to the car's length (now 168 inches) and over two inches to its width (now a midsize-like 71.2 inches. Compared to the 146-by-66-inch, 2,822-pound Mini and the 140-by-64-inch, 2,434-pound Fiat, the 3,340-pound Beetle TDI convertible is a big, heavy car. As noted earlier, solidity and ride quality benefit from this additional bulk. But rear seat room does not. Sure, the Beetle Convertible's rear seat is more viable than the MINI's, but bars to clear rarely come lower. The Fiat is in the same (adults-in-a-pinch) ballpark. In addition to the space shortage, the VW's rear seat back is uncomfortably upright. see full Volkswagen Beetle review | ||

The back seat, if you could really call it that, leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe another 3 in. That being said it fits a car seat with my 6' frame in the front seat ahead of it, so it gets the job done. Once the top goes down the interior space seems adequate. see full Volkswagen Beetle review |
