TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Mazda MX-5 Miata

2015 Mazda MX-5 Miata Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The most obvious reason not to buy any Mazda MX-5 Miata? The thing that kept me from buying one: no back seat. The MINI Roadster also had not back seat, while the MINI Convertible and Scion FR-S have vestigial perches on which only my smallest child might sit semi-comfortably. In contrast, I can fit all three of my teenagers into my Mazda RX-8. But if my wife also wants to come along, we have to take our other car. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review

	There's enough room for four adults inside the Mazda CX-5. But the Honda CR-V and some others are considerably roomier. Want an occasional third-row seat? While Nissan and Volkswagen offer one in their compact crossovers, Mazda does not. see full Mazda CX-5 review

2016 Mazda CX-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	4dr SUV 184-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	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
