What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Mazda Mazda6

2016 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2016 4dr Sedan 143-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Why doesn't this vehicle have heated front seats (they only cost a tenner or so at manufacturing time) and why doesn't it have electric front seats with memory (it is particularly annoying to have to try and reset the seat after the garage has had the car and adjusted it to their liking)! Again electric front seats don;t really cost anything much to build in. see full Mazda Mazda6 review

No rear seat. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review

It's OK for the driver, but there's not much room for the feet of the passenger. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review
