What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK

2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I have a problem with headroom. So many cars give me less than a half inch from my scalp to the frame on the sunroof. That hurts over bumps, not to mention what my hair looks like when I get out. GLK has over an inch of space for me. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	If you are 6' plus like me, you will have to adjust the front seat forward if you want passengers to ride with you unless they are quite small. But this is a perfect city hauler for a single or couple. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review
2010	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	When the front seats are positioned comfortably aft for a six footer, the second row passengers have way too little leg room. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review
2010	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Cramped and uncomfortable for anyone over 5 feet tall. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review
2010	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Wife and I are 5.9 and 5.5 respectively. kids can easily kick the seat (whcih in the Benz you want there feet off things). Not bad in sense it feels roomy when in it, but if you are looking for LOTS of space, look elsewhere. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review
2010	4dr SUV 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	We've only had the GLK-350 for a week. The backseat seems a little on the small side. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Audi A4 / S4 / RS4

2008 Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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 / RS4 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 / RS4 review

2008 Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The rear seat is adequate, but not large. Child seat fits fine, but my son can kick the back of the front seat. see full Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 review
2008	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	Depending on how tall your front passengers are, your rear passengers may not have any room to sit. Can fit 4 average sized adults, but it will be tight. see full Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 review
2008	4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Seats hard and unforgiving,had a sore back in first hour. Saab seats always been superb. see full Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 review
2008	4dr Sedan 420-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	Rear seats seem very cramped for leg room. I've never used them, but have only ever dared to take adults on short trips in the back. Heated seats are available for the rear passengers. see full Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 review
2008	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The rear seat is too small for adults on long trips (over an hour). And the rear seat can only hold 2 people even for short trips. see full Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 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 / RS4 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 / RS4 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 / RS4 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 / RS4 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 / RS4 review
