TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Scion iA
| 2016 Scion iA Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| Sitting behind my 5-9 self in the Scion iA, I have about an inch of knee room, which is an inch more than I have in the Fiesta. While other small sedans don't tend to be much better, the Nissan Versa has a far roomier rear seat. Note that while a car must be nearly the best if not the best in an area to warrant a "why to buy," it doesn't have to be nearly the worst to warranty a "why not to buy," only not good. see full Scion iA review | ||

| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
It took a while for me to adjust the seat properly, but after I did, I have to say the seating position and comfort rivaled many European sedans I have driven. I was not used to this level of comfort from an Asian-designed automobile. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I can fit three car seats in it. I can put my seat as far back as I need to and most adults can still sit comfortably in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

Large enough for a six foot fiver and still room in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

front seat is designed to short for taller people. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |

For short trips the Speed6 is fine. Longer than 2 hours in the car kills my back. Maybe the seats are cheaper in the Sport vs. the GT. Fortunately I've only taken 1 or 2 very long trips in it. see full Mazda Mazda6 review |
