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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |

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 |
