TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Mazda Mazda3

2014 Mazda Mazda3 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The Mazda3 also isn't a clear choice if a roomy rear seat is a top priority. Sitting behind my 5-9 self, I had little room to spare. The rear seat in the Ford Focus is at least as tight, but has a more comfortably positioned cushion. A Honda Civic, Nissan Sentra, or Toyota Corolla has far more rear seat room. If you like how the Mazda3 looks and drives, but need more rear seat legroom, the Mazda6 offers another three inches for another $2,100 to $3,700 (depending on trim level). see full Mazda Mazda3 review

2004 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.8L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Makes my bad back feel better. Large, supportive seat for large person. Plenty of room to move feet around during trips. Lots of adjustments. see full Volkswagen Passat review

even though GLS has manual front seat controls, the seat moves through a range of motion that is quite adequate for drivers over six feet see full Volkswagen Passat review

lateral support! Other features equal. see full Volkswagen Passat review
2002 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
It was roomy for me (6 foot plus and 300lbs) and the seat adjusted to over a wide range. The seat and tiller adjusts so everyone in the family has a good position from which to control the car. see full Volkswagen Passat review
2002 4dr Wagon turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4
5-speed manual FWD
For a while we had two child seats in the back. That can certainly be done in a smaller car, but the room of a midsize car is appreciated. see full Volkswagen Passat review

Fits my body very well. Heated seats are a plus in Toronto see full Volkswagen Passat review
