| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 132-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
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 |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Car was too confined for 3 tall pre teen kids/8/11/12 years old. Not enough leg nor shoulder room, Wife and myself near 6ft tall 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 |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
We would have never got rid of the Corolla, but we had a baby and the rear facing car seat made the front seat occupants seat too far forward, close to the dash, to make the seat fit.The car seat made driving very uncomfortable see full Toyota Corolla review |

Front seat room was great, as long as the seats were able to be near the back of their travel. When we had to move the front seats forward for a car seat to fit in the back, it made it too uncomfortable see full Toyota Corolla review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Fiesta
| 2011 Ford Fiesta Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
Its cramped, but seems about the same as any other car in its size range. It was easier to get in and out of compared to a Mazda 2 and about the same as current generation Prius C. I wouldn't take anyone long distances in the rear, but I didn't expect to. We have a 2009 Prius which is our long distance carry people car. I wanted something with good handling and economy that was well built and that's what I got. see full Ford Fiesta review |

Smallish like all b-segment cars. see full Ford Fiesta review |

I was told that it is comfortable for a short ride but after 45 minutes my passengers were complaining about lack of room and comfort. see full Ford Fiesta review |

Rear seat legroom is limited, especially if front seat passengers adjust their seats rearward. see full Ford Fiesta review |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Basically, it is a two seater. Car seats and small children will fit ok in the back. Essentially it is a great commuter car. see full Ford Fiesta review |

rear seat leg room is tight. see full Ford Fiesta review |
