2010 Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	There is no lumbar support which makes it tough for drives over 2 hours. The seats could be better for its class. I think Subaru remedied this issue in the new body style, however. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review

2008 Ford Explorer Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	the front seat has plenty of leg room and seats hug you see full Ford Explorer review
