What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Subaru Impreza / WRX

2014 Subaru Impreza / WRX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD
The lumbar support is slightly lacking for me, but I have dancer-like posture so it could just be my preference. The seats are very plush and well-designed otherwise... go sit in one. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX review

2007 4dr Sedan 161-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Spacious enough to allow my 84 year old mother to get in and out without injuring herself! see full Kia Optima review

After driving the Optima for five days straight for 10+ hours per day, other than the occasional stop, on a road trip, not one time did I get a sore back or thighs. see full Kia Optima review
