2021 Toyota RAV4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2020 4dr SUV 176-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD
Seats are comfortable but the cockpit seems designed to enfold you and while there is plenty of dose it doesn't feel roomy. The console is over large. see full Toyota RAV4 review

2007 4dr Hatch 150-horsepower 2.5L I5

Excellent seats and comfort, however occasionally find the seats a bit narrow and the foot well can be tight in some shoes. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review

The front seats offer great lateral support. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review

The sport seats in the basic black leatherette are nicely bolstered though not overly enveloping like seats in my FR-S. This means it hits a nice middle ground of comfort but still keeping you from being thrown around in aggressive driving. The manually adjusted seats are easily positioned to a comfortable state after you figure out which of the 4 levers is doing what. The adjustible thigh support is especially nice and not something I often see in this segment. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review

Great for my kids (4 and 7) but small for adults. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review

Seats could be firmer though adequate. It has no lumbar support and expended use probably will change the shape of the foam used in the seat. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review
