2008 Saab 9-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.3L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
These are the best seats ever designed. Really. see full Saab 9-5 review
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.3L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Extremely comfortable and supportive. air-cooled seat option is great in the summer. Front seat ergonomics and comfort blow away those of bmw, infiniti and acura, although leather quality is not as good. see full Saab 9-5 review

2014 Chevrolet Volt Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas
CVT FWD
Rear seat is adequate, but it is difficult to install or remove a child seat. The cushion is too firm to make this easy. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2014 4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas
CVT FWD
The car is only a four seter so there is no room if you have five people and with the front seats back all the way it is a little tight. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2013 4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas
CVT FWD
The rear seats have limited leg room. A forward facing child car seat (Safety 1st Air Protect) is fine but to install it rear facing would make the passenger seat almost unusable and being a 4 seat there is no option to install in the middle of the rear which i find allows in many cars a good way to keep everyone safe & comfortable. see full Chevrolet Volt review
