| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
These seats desperately need more lumbar support. They're okay in short distances, but I really want the Recaros from the Evo a few hours in. Stronger side bolsters would be nice for hoon duty, too. see full Mitsubishi Lancer review |

| 2013 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 240hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Front seats are comfortable AFTER removing headrests and re-installing them backwards. see full Ford Escape review |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
Wide bench seat with no humps. Middle passenger has good leg room where many other vehicles have a large hump to straddle. see full Ford Escape review |

It's a tad bit tight in the drivers seat. I have to postion the seat just right to avoid hitting my right knee on the center console, and I frequently hit the light switch when getting out. I'm only 5'9", so not that large of a person. see full Ford Escape review |
