2011 Nissan Rogue Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4
CVT FWD
I'm over 6' tall with long legs, and I have plenty of room. I can sit in the rear seat after I set the driver's seat at a comfortable position, as well. I wish the lower cushion height/angle could be adjusted, but still very comfortable. see full Nissan Rogue review
2010 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD
holds my three young kids comfortably, like the flat foot room. I don't like the front seats, I find them too flat and I don't like that they dont tilt back like my TSX see full Nissan Rogue review

Not great, not awful. Compared to my previous BMW 535i, it's awful, but for the class of vehicle it's OK for shorter distances, which is mostly what I use it for. see full Nissan Rogue review
2010 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4

Picked up one of my fat friends while on the test ride and had him ride in the back. Him and his wife were very comfortable. Lots of leg and foot room. see full Nissan Rogue review

Lots of leg room and the drivers seat is very adjustable and comfortable. I have wide shoulders and the leather seats are very comfortable for me. see full Nissan Rogue review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Passat

2014 Volkswagen Passat Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2015 The Passat's top strength remains a non-sporting attribute: never mind how the specs compare, the midsize Volkswagen has the roomiest interior in its class. Rear seat legroom seems limo-like compared to the merely adequate space inside the Mazda. Up front, there's also plenty of stretch-out space for heads, shoulders, and knees. The Passat's trunk is also among the largest, though in this area the Mazda comes up only a cubic foot short. see full Volkswagen Passat review

SEL Premium seating is fantastic. Definitely worth the cost of the upgrade over the mid-grade seats. see full Volkswagen Passat review

rear seat room is exceptional. can handle long-legged folks with ease and those with large shoe sizes. enter and exiting with larger folks not a problem either. see full Volkswagen Passat review
