2011 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
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 |
2020 Subaru Crosstrek Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2021 | The Subaru Impreza has a roomier and more comfortable rear seat than most compact hatchbacks. But in Crosstrek form the competition becomes small crossovers, and the rear seat in the Kia Seltos and some others is about equally roomy. A couple of adults should be comfortable back there. see full Subaru Crosstrek review |
