2010 2dr Coupe turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
With only 2 doors, the rear seats are pretty much useless. Obviously, if you really have to, you can fit people back there, but no one will want to climb back there when everyone at work is going out to lunch. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4

Not alot of head room and the steering wheel does not telescope. I fit in it fine but someone tall might not. minor thing really. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
