Mentioned this before, but should be mentioned again and again. It's a compact ecoonomy car with luxury under-the-hood technology. see full Toyota Prius review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Lexus ES

2009 Lexus ES Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Similar to the front seats, super comfortable and soft. A lot of leg room with an average-sized driver + passenger up front. Rear moonroof gives off the feel of a huge ceiling. see full Lexus ES review
2009 Lexus ES Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

2010 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Not very supportive. Felt like a hollowed out barrel. Only support was on the outside edges. see full Lexus ES review

6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
the seams in a seat should run front to rear vs. left to right this would make the seat more comfortable. the Toyota Camry leather seats are definitely more comparable... I think Lexis wanted a sportier looking seat but sacrificed comfort in doing see full Lexus ES review
2008 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
There is simply not enough legroom and three passengers will probably feel very cramped in the back as well. see full Lexus ES review
