2006 Toyota RAV4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2007 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Seat fits. Bottom long enough to support legs. Molded to body style. Not flat and short. Noticeably better feel to seat than any other vehicle. see full Toyota RAV4 review

2007 4dr Sedan 173-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
I know it is a smaller sedan, but even with the front seats shoved up to that your knees are in the dashboard, that leaves just enough room for an average human in back. Under normal front seat conditions, crushed knees in back. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Seats are very large and not built for comfort for a thinner person. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
The rear seat leg room is too small for American sized adults. A little more room would have made this car a lot more livable when family comes to town. This may be THE reason why I upgrade to a midsize car once this car dies. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
