2010 | 4dr Sedan 132-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I am 6 foot tall, 250 lbs and have plenty of room in the front seat. The driver's position holds me well and i do not feel like i am falling out of the seat when cornering. The passenger seat sits higher than i want, but there is plenty of room there as well. see full Toyota Corolla review |

Small and cram even for 5ft 6in male. Can pull back seat for more comfort but makes back seat even less comfortable and cram. see full Toyota Corolla review |

Since front seat feel cram at initial spacing it cause most front seat user to pull back seat for more comfort but makes back seat even less comfortable and cram. see full Toyota Corolla review |

My right knee/upper calf hits on the side of the console and sometimes gets irritated. The edge of the silver plastic portion could have been designed different/better. see full Toyota Corolla review |

Non existent, adults should not use the rear seats. Could be used as punishment for criminals. see full Toyota Corolla review |

2015 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Rear seating is very cramped, and the ease of entry/exit is poor. Think of the rear seats as emergency seating- like a Porsche 911, and you get the idea. No one will want to travel across town in the rear seats. Forget a road trip entirely. see full Fiat 500 review |
2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Roomy in front but narrow. With two people in front you're bound to rub shoulders or arms when using the arm rests. see full Fiat 500 review |

I would not put anyone on the rear seats. Maybe very short people for short distances. see full Fiat 500 review |
