TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA

2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The CLA's rear legroom stat, a very low 27.1 inches, suggests that adults won't even fit in back. But this stat under-represents reality. At 5-9, I could just manage to site behind myself. More than the limited amount of room, I minded the highly constricted view out. The coupe-like roof line takes a big cut out of the rear side windows. Unlike in the C-Class, the front seats largely block rear seat passengers' view forward. Suffer from claustrophobia? Best avoid the CLA. But, it's a coupe, so what did you expect? see full Mercedes-Benz CLA review

2006 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Great when I can take my husband and teenagers up to the mountains for a ski trip without any major complaints. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Excellent for cruising but lateral support is sorely lacking for cornering. Needs power & memory for the tilt/telescope steering wheel. Good view out of and around vehicle. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Lots of room. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2005 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD
These are the most comfortable and supportive seats I have ever sat in and this includes luxury cars like the Lincoln Town Car. The extendable thigh support is a bonus. see full Audi A4 / S4 review

2007 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
OK for kids, not really on for adults for a long journey. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
7-speed shiftable CVT FWD
What room? What comfort? Tight and cramped and incredibly firm. Zero leg room for average height adults. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 2dr Convertible turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Center console protrudes into the leg area while gas pedal is far over to the right. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 2dr Convertible turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Rear seats are really only good for children and pets. A grown person could never sit back there. This is expected for a convertible though. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Limited leg room, especially during ingress and egress. Hump bisects leg room. Seat cushion needs to be 1-2 inches higher. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
small rear seat like the 3 series see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Back seat leg room and head room is pretty small. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Sport seats were not provided to the US due to DOT crash testing regulations. This means the only seats available are the very flat and uncomfortable standard seats. Only the S4 has the Recaro option for the US. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
For tall passengers, the front seats will need to be pushed back in order to provide front leg room. Width of the cockpit side-to-side is not substantial. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed manual AWD
not a lot of rear seat leg room, esp if tall person in front seats see full Audi A4 / S4 review
