2009 Pontiac Torrent Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	The rear seat slides for and aft making for lots of leg room or more cargo space when you need it. I also like the center armrest and upright position. see full Pontiac Torrent review

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 161-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Tight seating in rear unless seats are pulled way fwd. see full Mazda CX-7 review
