The room was not bad, but the seat bottoms are too low and the road noise in the back seats was unbearable. see full Mini Countryman review |
TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Mini Hardtop
| 2014 Mini Hardtop Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| The 4 Door has 1.5 inches more rear legroom than the regular Hardtop, but 32.3 inches still isn't much. At 5-9, I can squeeze behind myself with perhaps an inch between my knees and the carved-out front seatbacks. Rear headroom is relatively abundant even though the seat cushion is mounted a comfortable height off the floor. The rear doors, though an improvement over the Clubman's single rear-hinged half-door, are still small and don't open wide. A Ford Fiesta ST might be at least as tight in the back seat, but the GTI, with 35.6 inches of rear legroom, is far roomier and easier to get into and out of. see full Mini Hardtop review | ||
