TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Mazda CX-5
| 2015 Mazda CX-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| There's no clear winner in rear seat room and comfort, either. The Mazda's rear seat is mounted a little lower than the Toyota's, and when sitting in it my knees are considerably closer (if still not close) to the front seat backs. Also, the Toyota's rear seat reclines, while the Mazda's does not. Neither car has air vents in the rear passenger compartment, but the RAV4 has a large vent high on the instrument panel apparently intended to push cool air into the rear seat via the ceiling. To counter these RAV4 advantages, the CX-5 offers about five inches more rear hip room. So three passengers will fit more comfortably. see full Mazda CX-5 review | ||

Soon after I bought the Mazda, I did an 8 hour trip in it. I found the seat comfort to be most satisfactory. I had no trouble finding a comfortable driving position using the power seat, and, the lumbar support. see full Mazda CX-5 review |

While recently shopping for a new car for the first time in over 10 years, I found that driver's seats are now made with high sides. For me, a 5'1" female driver, this makes it a bit awkward getting in and out. Combined with the higher ground clearance of a compact SUV, it's not the ideal setup. The Mazda CX-5 is not as bad as others, but it's still an issue. see full Mazda CX-5 review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 103-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Full sized adults fit well in the rear seat. 2 of them. see full Scion xB review |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 103-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
This car is like an optical illusion - it's SOOO much bigger on the inside than it seems like from the outside! Riding in it feels more like riding in a minivan than a car. My husband is over 6' tall, and he can sit comfortably in the driver's seat with plenty of room above his head. At the same time, my son (also over 6' tall) can sit comfortably behind him with plenty of room for his knees. When my kids were younger, we fit three of them in the back, and often went on long trips (5-6 hrs in the car) with no problems. Our luggage even fit in the back! see full Scion xB review |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 103-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
It is so comfortable for tall people, with plenty of legroon. see full Scion xB review |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 103-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
More rear legroom than a BMW 7 series !!! Tall people are more than comfortable in the back seat see full Scion xB review |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 103-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Gigantic rear seats. 6+ foot tall passengers can seat in the back without their knees touching the front seatbacks. Cargo capacity is also most impressive for such compact exterior dimensions. see full Scion xB review |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The seats are very comfortable for a vehicle as inexpensive as this. see full Scion xB review |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
There is tons of room in this car! It almost seems bigger on the inside than the car is on the outside. see full Scion xB review |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I have 3 kids, ages 15, 13, and 7, and they have all kinds of leg room in the back seat of this car. It's almost as much as a minivan. All 3 can ride comfortably in the back for up to an hour or so. Another 2 inches or so of width would make it ideal, even for longer trips. see full Scion xB review |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
There is enough room in the rear seat for two large men to sit comfortably or, in my case, two car seats for my children. see full Scion xB review |
