What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Mercury Mariner

2006 Mercury Mariner Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic AWD
The seats have plush cushioning, lumbar control and position control. The seats are leather/vinyl (I think leather, but not sure) with center punched suede allowing some air circulation. All good for greater comfort on long trips see full Mercury Mariner review
2006 Mercury Mariner Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid
CVT AWD
Rear seat room is limited, seats firm, but little side support see full Mercury Mariner review
2005 4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed automatic AWD
For long drives even with leather it can get uncomfortable. A little more support and padding would be good in the seat. see full Mercury Mariner review

2007 4dr Sedan 173-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
I know it is a smaller sedan, but even with the front seats shoved up to that your knees are in the dashboard, that leaves just enough room for an average human in back. Under normal front seat conditions, crushed knees in back. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Seats are very large and not built for comfort for a thinner person. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
The rear seat leg room is too small for American sized adults. A little more room would have made this car a lot more livable when family comes to town. This may be THE reason why I upgrade to a midsize car once this car dies. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
