2007 2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD
The 6 way adjustable drivers seat really makes for a comfortable ride. Driving upwards of 700km a day for 4 days straight gave me a great chance to test this out, and I never once got stiff and sore. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006 2dr Coupe 145-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
It fits me perfectly. Actually, so does the rear, but I bought a coupe. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review

The rear seat leg-room is not for adults. Only small kids can fit back there. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007 2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
5-speed manual FWD
In coupe form, the rear seats are cramped and and things can be somewhat claustrophobic in the back. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007 2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
It is a sport compact car, so as one would expect, the rear seat is fairly difficult to get to, but once you are there, it is quite comfortable. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006 2dr Coupe supercharged 205hp 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
The front is great, but you have to be in a car seat or a small person to not mind the back seat. Little legroom, small seats. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006 2dr Coupe 171-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
not much room in the back if the front passengers has their seats all the way back see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
