| 2006 | 2dr Convertible 115-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
The rear seat is usable only as a package tray, though it does serve to hold a second carry-on bag. see full Mini Convertible review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Fiat 500
| 2015 Fiat 500 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Rear seating is very cramped, and the ease of entry/exit is poor. Think of the rear seats as emergency seating- like a Porsche 911, and you get the idea. No one will want to travel across town in the rear seats. Forget a road trip entirely. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Roomy in front but narrow. With two people in front you're bound to rub shoulders or arms when using the arm rests. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I would not put anyone on the rear seats. Maybe very short people for short distances. see full Fiat 500 review |
