2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

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

2011 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Need 7 passenger seating and the Sorento has delivered. Used 3rd row quite a few times with children AND adults. No complaints, although 3rd ride was usually no more than one hour. see full Kia Sorento review

The third seat was a major factor in our decision process. see full Kia Sorento review

Needs an adjustable second row and a little more cargo room when the third row seat is up. see full Kia Sorento review
