What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Saab 9-5

2009 Saab 9-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan turbocharged 220hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Most car seats can be comfortable for a 1 hour drive. Few can be comfortable for a 4 hour drive. Luckily the Saab seats fall into the latter category. see full Saab 9-5 review
2008 4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.3L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Very comfortable even with rear facing car seat behind either driver or passenger seat. Head room was good even with moon roof. see full Saab 9-5 review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze

2011 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Unfortunately there is no leg room in the rear of the car when the front seats are a particular distant from the dashboard. So either all the people when riding in this car need to be small people like no more then 5 foot?! or you can only have two 6 foot people in it at a time. needs serious improvements there! see full Chevrolet Cruze review
