What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Mazda CX-9

2012 Mazda CX-9 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr SUV 273-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Seat hugs in the right places without being cumbersome. Headrest position is much better than the midsize GM vehicles I test-drove (Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave). see full Mazda CX-9 review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Nissan Sentra

2006 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed manual FWD
these seats are great they have lots of room not to mention back support and side bolsters see full Nissan Sentra review
2006 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
CVT FWD
Seats are hard. Headrest forces your head to bend too far forward. Sculpted seat backs forces your shoulders too far forward from your spine. see full Nissan Sentra review
2006 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
With the front seats all the way back, children can barely fit their legs behind the seats. see full Nissan Sentra review
