What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Subaru Outback

2007 Subaru Outback Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Footroom too short. see full Subaru Outback review
2008	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	A little tight in the left portion of the footwell; small dead pedal. see full Subaru Outback review
2008	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	not long enough for a 6 foot 2 inch frame but I manage see full Subaru Outback review
2007	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I was amazed at how small the back seat is in this car. Really no bigger than a compact sedan, eg Civic or Corolla. I can't fit my 3 kids (in car seats) back there, and feel bad when co-workers pile in to go to lunch. Surprisingly small for a vehicle this size, and marketed as a "family car." If you plan to put adults or 3 kids back there regularly, look at the '10 or newer (or at something else -- the rear seat in my co-worker's Accord is far bigger and more comfortable). see full Subaru Outback review
2007	4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Leg and head room lacking for over 6 footers. see full Subaru Outback review
2007	4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Seat back a bit low for 6 footers. see full Subaru Outback review
2006	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Too small for kids see full Subaru Outback review
2006	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Too short! I am 6ft tall and the front passenger seat leaves me feeling very cramped. Drivers position is better. Seats also too narrow. Maybe plenty of room for skinny folks, but not for us folks that are large boned :-) see full Subaru Outback review
