I have a hard time fitting into most cars due to headroom issues. Wagon without sunroof fits me perfectly. see full Subaru Legacy review |

Passengers have complained that their legs get a little pinched in the rear seat. I tell them to stop being so tall. see full Subaru Legacy review |

Admittedly, the Legacy is a small-ish vehicle. My back seat passengers report being comfortable, but snug. see full Subaru Legacy review |

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Subaru Legacy
| 2016 Subaru Legacy Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2015 | Along with the Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, and Volkswagen Passat, the Subaru Legacy has one of the roomiest rear seats in the segment. Rear seat passengers have a couple inches less knee room in the Ford Fusion. The rear seats in the Chrysler and Buick are tighter still. This said, especially with the optional sunroof rear seat headroom is somewhat limited. People taller than six feet might come into contact with the headliner. The top trim level includes rear air vents. see full Subaru Legacy review | |

| Year | Comment | |
| The front seats have an unusually high bulge just below my shoulder blades. This feels more odd than uncomfortable, at least to me. Partly depending on your height your experience might vary. These seats also provide very little lateral support, which admittedly isn't much of an issue given the limited grippiness of the tires. I had no such qualms with the armrest on the door. It's wide and cushy. In the front seats' favor, for 2015 Subaru has added fore-aft adjustability to the headrests, a rarity in recent moderately priced cars. see full Subaru Legacy review | ||
