Rear seat space is slightly cramped for the size of the car. see full Saturn ION review |

Not much rear seat room at all, and very little place to put feet. It had theatre style seating, that sat rear passengers higher than the front. This was great for visibility. However, headroom was not very great. The seats were not supportive. see full Saturn ION review |

Seats are hard and offer little to no support for back or legs. Especially uncomfortable on long car trips. At 24, I should not be haveing back support issues. I have driven long distances in other cars before, not nearly as uncomfortable as the ION. see full Saturn ION review |

There is hardly any seat bolstering for spirited cornering, so you sway around quite a bit in the turns. After about 4 or 5 hours straight it wears your butt down. see full Saturn ION review |
