This the best point of this car. The leather, from Scotland, is the best I have experienced in a car... And the room is such that my 6 foot son feels separate from me when along for the drive. see full Lincoln MKS review |

Front seats are the most comfortable ones I have sat in, the lumbar adjustment is great, not only goes in and out ( harder / softer ), it also has an adjustment for up aand down. see full Lincoln MKS review |

2015 Volkswagen Tiguan Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2014 | Based on the specs, the Tiguan suffers from insufficient dimensions. It's 3.6 inches less lengthy than the Escape, and as a result has an inch less legroom. And the Ford falls near the bottom of the segment in this spec. In the real world, though, the Tiguan's rear seat feels roomier and more comfortable than the Escape's and in the ballpark with the class leaders. A relatively large seat bottom is high enough off the floor to provide adults with thigh support. The rear seat back is more comfortably shaped than the compact crossover norm, and reclines. One nit: hard plastic isn't the most comfortable surface for a rear armrest. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review |
