What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Scion iQ

2014 Scion iQ Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 2dr Hatch 94-horsepower 1.3L I4
CVT FWD
For such a small car, it's surprising roomy up front. I'm 6' 200 lbs and have no problem getting in. Comfort is good with plenty of head room. Back seat is very tiny but one person could sit there fairly comfortably by sitting sideways as the front passenger seat sits a little farther forward than the driver seat. Passenger seat has plenty of room since there is no glove box that gets in the way. see full Scion iQ review

Rear seat room is pretty small. An adult would have to sit sideways to make use of it (our dealer sat back there during our test drive. If there are more than one or two people who will be using this car at one time, it's probably not the right choice. see full Scion iQ review

2012 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5
6-speed manual FWD
The front seats are wonderful. I tend to get stiff and sore when I sit too long in a car, especially my old VW GTI and our other VW Passat wagon. These seats in the C30 are very comfortable and I felt good getting out after a long drive. see full Volvo C30 review
2011 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Excellent support for very long drives. Passengers in the rear say the same. see full Volvo C30 review
