Rear seats are narrow and hard. The centre seat is only usable for very small people on very short trips. see full Mercedes-Benz C-Class review |

2014 Infiniti Q50 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2014 | Like the G37, the Q50 has one of the roomiest rear seats among BMW 3-Series challengers. On paper it offers the most combined rear legroom, 44.5 inches in the front seat and 35.1 inches in back, about 2.5 more than the BMW and Lexus. But the difference doesn't seem as large as this number suggests. The Audi S4 and Cadillac ATS remain more cramped. The Q50 doesn't come by its extra room through brilliant packaging. Instead, at 188 inches it's about a half-foot longer than a 3-Series or ATS. see full Infiniti Q50 review |
