| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 228-horsepower 3.0L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The seat causes no discomfort to my tailbone like many ohter cars. Furthermore, the padding is firm and feels like it will last a long time. see full Mercedes-Benz C-Class review |

Mercedes-Benz makes the best seats in the business, period. Even after a 10 hour drive, my back did not hurt. see full Mercedes-Benz C-Class review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 181hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Not much leg room when compared to other luxury entries. No flat floor so a 3rd passenger in the rear is not possible. see full Mercedes-Benz C-Class review |

Center console and stack cut into front side leg room, my left leg is always up against the center console. see full Mercedes-Benz C-Class review |

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Hyundai Veloster
| 2016 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2015 | 3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
The Veloster is setup like a sports car - stiff suspension, low riding height, and sport seats designed to keep you in place. What this car is not is comfortable. At all. There is almost no back support, and little coushining. On a long trip, it will be PAIN. On roads trampled on by dinosaurs, it will be PAIN. The interior accents also get in the way of resting your legs on anything, so you have to just deal with the space provided, which isn't much. This car is just big enough, and not a milimeter more. see full Hyundai Veloster review |
