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

Great front seats, very comfortable. Minimal wind buffeting with the top down. Volvo offered an accessory wind blocker with this model but it's not necessary. Interior trim on the arm rests could be softer. My elbow gets sore resting on the hard plastic. I keep a small fleece pad in the car to solve this little issue. see full Volvo C70 review
