What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Mazda Mazda5

2015 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.5L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
The front seat head rests are horrific. They jut out and force your head, neck and entire upper back into an uncomfortable position. I'm sure this is part of some ill-conceived anti-whiplast design, but it's awful. I'd rather risk some whiplash than drive every day with this! see full Mazda Mazda5 review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Audi A4 / S4

2012 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan supercharged 333hp 3.0L V6
7-speed automated manual AWD
Without question, the most comfortable car for long road trips that I've ever owned. Our family of four took a road trip of ~2000 miles, longest single-day drive was 11 hours, and never felt any fatigue or discomfort from the seating. Seats are firm and supportive but not harsh or uncomfortable. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2012 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Like German cars, the seats are quite hard. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
