TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback
| 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| The Scion iM / Toyota Corolla iM was engineered primarily for the European market on a totally different platform than the Toyota Corolla sedan. The 2019 Corolla Hatchback shares a new platform with the 2020 Corolla sedan (and with the new Camry and Avalon as well). But it's still a smaller car than the Corolla sedan, with a wheelbase shorter by 2.4 inches. This somehow translates to a foot less rear legroom on the spec sheets, a tremendous difference. Toyota seems to cheat the sedan's legroom specs by a couple of inches--but ten inches is still a huge difference. Is the actual difference this large? I doubt it. The official spec for the Corolla Hatchback, 29.9 inches, is TIGHT, about a half-foot short of what the average adult male needs. There's more space back there than this spec suggests--but not a lot more. At 5-9, I could sit behind myself, but with only a couple of inches between my knees and the front seat. Put someone taller in either row and, well... Aside from the lack of space, the Corolla Hatchback's rear seat cushion is higher offer the floor than the Civic's and provides decent thigh support. On paper, the new Mazda3 offers about five inches more rear legroom than the Toyota. The actual difference is closer to two inches, maybe three. Not huge, but even two inches often could make the difference between people fitting comfortable and not. Starting once again with the spec sheets, the Honda Civic offers an inch more rear legroom than the Mazda. The actual difference seems larger. Another clear win for the Honda, especially compared to the Toyota. Focus on perceived roominess, and this Honda win becomes a rout. Although all of the cars are about equally wide, the Civic has a much wider cabin, especially up front. While the other two cars definitely feel like compacts from the driver seat, the Civic feels nearly as spacious as a midsize car. Here the spec sheet doesn't mislead: Honda claims three more inches of front shoulder room than Toyota does. see full Toyota Corolla Hatchback review | ||

With a bad back it is very easy to get into and out of the car. Very roomy when compared to other vehicles in the same class, whether two or four passenger. see full smart fortwo review |

Have driven on a number of 350 mile trips each way on the Interstae and found the ride comfortable. Around town it holds its own, except on very rough roads. see full smart fortwo review |

There is no rear seat. This is okay with me. But for someone looking for a family vehicle this could be a downside. I mostly see it as an excuse to not have to cart others around. see full smart fortwo review |

Well there is no rear seat to start with. But this could have been a better designed flip down tray design for groceries and other items. see full smart fortwo review |
