My wife refers to it as a sofa on wheels, my daughter sprawls out in the cavernous back seat. I just love the way it drives. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Hyundai Veloster

2016 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2015 3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4
6-speed automated manual FWD
The Veloster is setup like a sports car - stiff suspension, low riding height, and sport seats designed to keep you in place. What this car is not is comfortable. At all. There is almost no back support, and little coushining. On a long trip, it will be PAIN. On roads trampled on by dinosaurs, it will be PAIN. The interior accents also get in the way of resting your legs on anything, so you have to just deal with the space provided, which isn't much. This car is just big enough, and not a milimeter more. see full Hyundai Veloster review
