No rear seat. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review |
| 2007 | 2dr Convertible 166-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual RWD |
It's OK for the driver, but there's not much room for the feet of the passenger. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2010 Volvo V50
| 2010 Volvo V50 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 113hp 1.6L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual FWD |
Rear seat is slightly hampered by limited head/leg/sideways room, but for normal sized persons the seat is fantastic for two with splending leg and back support. Car is also very silent, making long drives a pleasure. see full Volvo V50 review |
| 2010 | 4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Lots of front seat room. Good dash design accommodates tall passengers with rear facing car seat behind. Seat was vertically adjustable providing lots of hear room. see full Volvo V50 review |
