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

2016 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

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2005	4dr Sedan 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD	I am 6 feet tall, and weigh 250 pounds. I have a LOT of headroom, and legroom. Entry and exit is very easy. see full Toyota Corolla review
2005	4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Bolstering and grippy fabric. None of the rat hair from the base. see full Toyota Corolla review
2005	4dr Sedan 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	can fit a large man with ease see full Toyota Corolla review

2006 Toyota Corolla Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	We would have never got rid of the Corolla, but we had a baby and the rear facing car seat made the front seat occupants seat too far forward, close to the dash, to make the seat fit.The car seat made driving very uncomfortable see full Toyota Corolla review
2007	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Front seat room was great, as long as the seats were able to be near the back of their travel. When we had to move the front seats forward for a car seat to fit in the back, it made it too uncomfortable see full Toyota Corolla review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	At 6'2" there is no leftover room, even with the driver's seat all the way back. see full Toyota Corolla review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	small and cramped see full Toyota Corolla review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Foot room to confining see full Toyota Corolla review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Leg room limited see full Toyota Corolla review
2005	4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD	The design of the front seats makes it difficult to get four normally proportioned adults into a car which looks like it would accomodate them. The bolstering in the back makes the five-seater only take four. see full Toyota Corolla review
2005	4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD	The car could be a bit wider to better accommodate 3 people in the back seat. see full Toyota Corolla review
