TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Mazda Mazda6

2015 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	This one, again borrowed from the earlier review, won't be an issue with most potential buyers: The Mazda6's svelte, athletically proportioned body comes at a typical price: rear seat room, as in the Ford Fusion, is merely adequate. Sitting behind my 5-9 self, my knees and head have only an inch or two of clearance, my shins none. Among major competitors, only the Chevrolet Malibu has a tighter rear seat. To carve out even this much room beneath the plunging rear roofline the new Mazda6's rear seat cushion is slightly undersized and positioned too low. That in the Fusion is more supportive. A deal killer? Unless space for large adults is a priority, no. If, on the other hand, space for large adults is a priority, then the Honda Accord and VW Passat are better bets. Even for small passengers, the Mazda6 Sport's rear seat has a key shortcoming. Unlike in the Touring and Grand Touring, there's no rear air vent to help cool the aft cabin in the summer. see full Mazda Mazda6 review

2015 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

2008 Mercedes-Benz M-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Bottom seat cushions are long enough for taller drivers. Padding is not too firm or too soft. Excellent support and an upright, easy-chair seating position, instead of having to extend your legs horizontally to get legroom. Results in no low back pain. see full Mercedes-Benz M-Class review
2007	4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Can drive this vehicle all day long and not be tired. see full Mercedes-Benz M-Class review

2008 Mercedes-Benz M-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 382-horsepower 5.5L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	very still and uncomfortable for long drives see full Mercedes-Benz M-Class review
