2007 Toyota Prius Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Seat needs more lower back support for distance driving. see full Toyota Prius review
2008	4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	If you are much over 5 foot 10 inches tall, the drivers seat might get a little tight. Not much leg support either as the bottom cushion is very short. I hear the 2010 redesign helped with this. Since I use this car for not much more than an hour commute, I tolerate the seat as the rest of the car is so darn good. see full Toyota Prius review
2007	4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	no comment. We like what we have see full Toyota Prius review
2006	4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	long drives are a pain the .... well, you know. the car is not a comfortable as I would like. limited range of adjustments. Not bad for a couple of hours or even on a easy road trip but, more than 10 hours in a day? not for me. too bad. see full Toyota Prius review
2006	4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Okay, but gets uncomfortable after an hour. No ability to change seat angle even with leather version that I had. see full Toyota Prius review
