What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Mazda Mazda5

2007 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	One of the smallest vehicles with seating for 6. Going to a full size minivan removes the option for a manual transmission, severely reduces visibility and adds too much weight. SUVs are just way too big see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Space for two kids or adult to sit comfortably - elderly father sits up straight and can access easily with sliding doors. Pop up seats deal with short term travel with friends/teammates. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Ample space for such a small exterior. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	3rd row in a "car" is nice - we always have the occasional 3rd or 4th child and like that they are somewhat temporarily available. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2007	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Rear seats fit adults or kids in car seats adequately, especially for an economy car. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Tons of rear seat room, and the second row seats can slide back/forth and recline. Third row is reserved for small children, however. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The rear doors are the sliding type, which is the most practical (and brilliant) type of rear doors for children. I also like the fact that the middle seats recline and slide, they have storage under the cushions, and a third row of usable seating! see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Great, height adjustable driver seat, with good lumbar support. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Second row seats have lots of room, can slide fore and aft, and can recline. The passenger seats up in a chair-like posture, with great support for thighs. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Can easily and comfortably seat six (6!) adults in a small package with storage space remaining. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2007 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	With the seat all back, there is not much room for anyone over six feet tall. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Tight fit once the front seats are slid back. Third row is useless if the second row is slid back. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2017 Toyota Prius

2017 Toyota Prius Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2016	For a compact hatchback, the new Toyota Prius feels very roomy inside. It helps that the tall, sloping console of the third-generation Prius has been replaced by one with a much less intrusive (if also less sporty) design. The deep instrument panel is scooped out on top, while the windshield is large and distant. The view forward from the driver seat is very open, but anyone who isn't a goldfish will find it unusual. It's like driving a spaceship, in two senses. Or a small minivan. The Ford C-MAX has a crossover-like driving position and the most comfortable seats. The front seats in the Prius are nicely shaped, but less firm. Those in the Volt could use more contour. I found the Civic's front seats somewhat uncomfortable. The Volt feels far tighter inside. Up front the windshield seems far smaller than that in the Prius. The back seat, while its cushion is comfortably positioned, threatens to induce claustrophobia. Both the Prius and the Volt have restricted visbility to the sides and especially to the rear. The view is much better from the driver seat in the C-MAX. see full Toyota Prius review

2017 Toyota Prius Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Rear seat passengers in the Prius have far more knee room than those in the Volt, and feel far less closed in. Despite a low-mounted seat cushion, though, headroom is limited. Rear seat passengers in the C-MAX enjoy a much more comfortably positioned seat cushion, significantly more headroom, and better outward visibility. see full Toyota Prius review
