TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Mazda Mazda6
| 2019 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| The Mazda6 has one clear disadvantage compared to the Honda Accord: a much less roomy (if comfortable) rear seat. There are at least three more inches of knee room in the back seat of the Honda, a dramatic difference. Mazda redesigned the Mazda6's front seats for 2018, aiming to make them wider and more comfortable. I found them reasonably comfortable, but not exceptional. The side bolsters are on the small side for a car with some sporting pretensions. see full Mazda Mazda6 review | ||

The Mazda6 has a smaller rear seat, no way around it. That being said, I find it to be more richly appointed than the Legacy's with the same great materials as up-front and cool touches: the USB ports are in the center armrest with a covered storage cubby, and the rear seat heaters are 3-level with controls in the armrest. These touches are reminiscent of very high-end luxury cars and are more convenient locations in general. The Mazda's heated rear seats also seem to be stronger than the Legacy's. --- The seats follow the same theme as the front in both cars- softer/plusher in the Legacy, firmer but well shaped in the Mazda. --- The front seat-backs are more upscale in the Mazda, and the rear seat of the Mazda has ambient lighting in the door pockets (unlike the Legacy). Overall, the rear cabin of the Mazda is snugger but remains comfortable while carrying on the quality and elegance of the front. For space though, the Legacy still grabs a Win here. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review |

It is difficult to find a comfortable driving position in the manual seat because the seat tilts forward as it lifts up. Lumbar support is poor an the steering wheel is too far away. see full Kia Rondo review |
