Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Best in class, even better than the much larger Altima. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |

Memory foam in the seats enhances comfort, along with well-positioned head restraints and wide seating surfaces. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |

The rear seat room was the first attraction to the car and we ended up comparing it to larger cars. Adults are perfectly comfortable in the rear of this car, more so than larger cars. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |
2007 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Rear seat room is actually comfortable for people over 6 ft tall see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Comfortable & wide seating, almost as good as our newer 2008 CRV AWD, for both driver & passenger. Centre console area is small & could be better designed, especially cup holder & 12 volt power outlet. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Excellent legrooms & headrests for 2 adult passengers, 3rd. person is fine for shorter trip as ours is mainly a solo driven commuter car most of the time. Seatback folds almost flat forward for larger packages (great for shopping at IKEA) see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |

The seats on this were really not nice. Cheap is the word. Poor shaping, no lumbar support. They have really improved this in the new 2012 sedan, at least. It only took them 5 years. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review |
2017 Lexus IS Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2016 | For me, the front bucket seats in Lexus F Sport models provide a nearly ideal blend of comfort and support. Even when they don't lack lateral support, the seats in competitors don't fit my form as well. Infiniti doesn't offer the Q50 2.0t in Sport form. The standard car's front seats provide little lateral support. The instrument panel appears larger and more imposing in the Infiniti than in the Lexus. Still, I wish the view forward were a little more open in the latter. (The Cadillac ATS is better in this regard.) Lexus lowered the driving position compared to the previous IS to help the car feel sportier. I raised the seat some to compensate. Adding all-wheel-drive to the Lexus IS (and a V6 engine with it, AWD isn't offered with the 2.0T engine) adds another issue, a large hump beneath the driver's right calf. Some drivers might find they have to adjust how they sit to avoid this hump. see full Lexus IS review |
