Roomy front seat room. see full Nissan Altima review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
I am 6'3", weigh 235. Being a big guy, I find this car VERY comfortable. I use it in my work daily. I drive it multiple trips/day (there have been as many as 8-10 trips/day-from 2 miles up to 50 miles/each trip). So I am in/out of the car multiple times/day. It's very easy to enter and exit and is very roomy for a mid-sized car and also has a lot of rear leg room. The trunk is large as well and the back seat folds down making the useful trunk space all the more. I also like the console and having the iPod connection in the second storage area of the console-out of the way. Hip room of the front seat is very generous as well. Just yesterday I had a rear seat passenger who commented how much leg room they had in the back. see full Nissan Altima review |

I am a big guy who at first did not consider Altima because I did not think I would fit in it. I was surprised to find I fit just fine. I am 6'3" and 252lbs. The front seats provide ample room. I also have a lot of head room. see full Nissan Altima review |

I have a problem with headroom. So many cars give me less than a half inch from my scalp to the frame on the sunroof. That hurts over bumps, not to mention what my hair looks like when I get out. GLK has over an inch of space for me. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |

If you are 6' plus like me, you will have to adjust the front seat forward if you want passengers to ride with you unless they are quite small. But this is a perfect city hauler for a single or couple. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |

When the front seats are positioned comfortably aft for a six footer, the second row passengers have way too little leg room. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |

Cramped and uncomfortable for anyone over 5 feet tall. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |

Wife and I are 5.9 and 5.5 respectively. kids can easily kick the seat (whcih in the Benz you want there feet off things). Not bad in sense it feels roomy when in it, but if you are looking for LOTS of space, look elsewhere. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |

We've only had the GLK-350 for a week. The backseat seems a little on the small side. see full Mercedes-Benz GLK review |
