TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Nissan Sentra

2014 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The Nissan Sentra offers a smooth, quiet ride and about as much passenger (and cargo) room as you'll find in a compact sedan. Open the door, and the SL's leather-trimmed interior appears luxurious. Sit down, though, and the illusion crumbles. Unlike those in the Altima, the Sentra's flat, firm seats provide little in the way of comfort or support. A tilt adjustment for the driver seat would help, but one is not offered. The Civic's seats aren't much cushier, but their shape provides better support. For the best seats in the segment, check out the Chevrolet Cruze and Ford Focus. see full Nissan Sentra review

2009 Toyota Yaris Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	I can adjust the seat back so I can reach all controls with just arm movement. I can raise the seat so my thighs are fully supported right out to my knees. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	For the size of car, there is a lot of front seat room see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Have driven Tampa - Durham multiple times (11-12 hrs each way). Seat feels REAL nice to me. see full Toyota Yaris review

2009 Toyota Yaris Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Ride position too low. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Ha ha ha ha! Perhaps a small dog would be comfortable back there. The only good thing about the back seat is that I've read it is not too hard to remove it entirely! see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Not comfortable to sit in for more than an hour. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The back seats are extremely cramped when slid forward. They must be slid forward when a non-tiny amount of cargo needs to be put in the back. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Small in the back, but the seats can adjust, recline and fold down for cargo. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	incofortable even for only two adults. The passanger in the center will be very inconfortable when tree passengers are in rear seat. see full Toyota Yaris review
