Seat fabric is very rough and stains are unusually difficult to remove, but the fabric is at least durable. Rear seat is split folding, and also reclines. Rear seat is actually usable (have a child seat installed back there), panoramic moonroof is nice. see full Scion tC review |

It is fantastic. You can ride for hundreds of miles a day and not get sore at all. My bad back loves it. Hyundai should start making home furniture. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review |
