- Terrible front seat support - The cushions are too short - It's not noticeable on a test drive right away. I would not have bought the car! Test drive extensively!
- Surfaces where your elbows would lay are too hard - I purchased foam pads to make it feel better.
- Tall drivers like myself will struggle with the telescoping wheel's short extension range.
- It is hard to get into a fully comfortable driving position. The memory seats in the XT help somewhat by retaining your seat settings if moved.
- Front seat cushions are too short - Yes I said this twice
- Front seat cushions are too short - Yes I said this THREE times!
Subaru are you listening? The front seat cushions are WAY TOO SHORT!

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Hyundai Elantra GT
2015 Hyundai Elantra GT Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

Like the Elantra Touring which it replaced, the Elantra GT shares few if any visible parts with the Elantra coupe and sedan. Instead, both cars are essentially the European-market Hyundai i30 rebadged and slightly retuned for North American consumption.
In Europe, the i30 is offered in two lengths, a hatch and an estate (the Queen's English for "wagon"). With the Elantra Touring, we got the estate. Perhaps because not enough people bought an Elantra Touring, Hyundai decided we'd readily trade functionality for styling. So with the Elantra GT we get the hatchback.
While adults no longer have room to stretch, the Elantra GT's rear seat remains roomier than those in the Mazda3 and Ford Focus, but can't quite match the Kia Forte5's interior dimensions. Actually, Mazda claims more rear legroom in its car, but this particular spec seems well out of sync with reality. Even if this wasn't the case, specs aren't everything. Owing to a healthy height off the floor, the Hyundai's rear seat might be the most comfortable in the segment (unless you're tall enough to require more than the modest amount of headroom).
A bonus for rear-seat passengers: the Tech Package includes the segment's only panoramic sunroof.
