2012 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Even with the front seats slid all the way back, this car still has more room than almost any other car -- almost as much room as a BMW 780IL. see full Nissan Versa review
2012 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
CVT FWD
Only subcompact we test drove that could actually fit four adults. More rear leg room than many midsize cars. see full Nissan Versa review
2011 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The seats were ample, and well supported. In my last two cars (a Corolla and a Legacy) I needed a lumbar cushion, but not in the Versa. The seat bottoms also supported my thighs for enough of their length for comfort. see full Nissan Versa review

When I bought the car, I laid the seat down all the way to make sure it would be comfortable enough to nap on.  It is, but it's slightly more comfortable if the car is parked on an incline because the seat doesn't quite go down completely flat... although come to think of it I haven't tried raising the seat height with the lever then setting the seat back.  Anyway, the passenger side doesn't have a seat height adjustment lever and it doesn't quite make a 180% flat angle either. see full Nissan Versa review

2010 4dr SUT 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
The interior is the Ridgelines stronges point. Comfortable front and back and a feeling a space. The lack of transmission tunnel and column mounted shifter in particular make the front cabin roomy. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Plenty of room and comfort for 5 passengers. Easy to put seats up or down, depending on hauling needs. Rear seat access is easy via the full-size rear passenger doors. Ventilation is good with the rear-vents between the front seats. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Very good leg room and back of seat angled properly see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Plenty of comfortable seat with the split bench. Can fit a car seat on the smaller right side and still have room for two adults with reasonable leg room. Both sides of the split bench can be easily flipped up for increased storage or down for seating. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
The rear seat is very spacious and relatively comfortable. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6

Rear seats are as comfortable as any vehicle I have been in. see full Honda Ridgeline review
