2017 Subaru WRX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

2016 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 268hp 2.0L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
Anyone whose owned a previous-gen WRX knows rear seat space, especially leg room, as "OK" at best. Subaru has revised the rear seats to where there is now more leg room for the lucky passengers in the rear. With the driver seat adjusted to how I sit (I'm 6-feet tall and have a more upright seating position), there is about 1.5 inches of space between my knees and the driver seat back (vs. no space on the previous gen!). Comfort is pretty good, although the seats take on more of a lean on the seat back, which may/may not jive well with your passengers backs. see full Subaru WRX review |

Very comfortable,deep, luxurious and spacious rear seating (no middle seat) positioning your passengers in from the doors and with a usable middle platform. Awesome headroom for a coupe style car - I am 6ft and can sit tall. see full BMW X6 review |
