What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Toyota Yaris

2008 Toyota Yaris Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	I can adjust the seat back so I can reach all controls with just arm movement. I can raise the seat so my thighs are fully supported right out to my knees. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	For the size of car, there is a lot of front seat room see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Have driven Tampa - Durham multiple times (11-12 hrs each way). Seat feels REAL nice to me. see full Toyota Yaris review
2007	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	There's lots of space around you in the front seats, moreso than other cars I have owned. Lots of modern cars have a big, tall center console that extends back to the rear seats and up to your elbow. The Yaris is not like this at all. Only the gear stick separates the driver and passenger. see full Toyota Yaris review
2007	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	More room than many mid-size cars see full Toyota Yaris review
2007	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	The seats are soft but supportive, and hug the driver firmly in place. The result is a real sense of connection with the car. see full Toyota Yaris review

2007	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	more leg room than a lot of larger cars see full Toyota Yaris review

2008 Toyota Yaris Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Ride position too low. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Not comfortable to sit in for more than an hour. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The back seats are extremely cramped when slid forward. They must be slid forward when a non-tiny amount of cargo needs to be put in the back. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	incofortable even for only two adults. The passanger in the center will be very inconfortable when tree passengers are in rear seat. see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Ha ha ha ha! Perhaps a small dog would be comfortable back there. The only good thing about the back seat is that I've read it is not too hard to remove it entirely! see full Toyota Yaris review
2008	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Small in the back, but the seats can adjust, recline and fold down for cargo. see full Toyota Yaris review
2007	4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Very narrow. see full Toyota Yaris review
2007	2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	On long drives, it is very uncomfortable in the lumbar area. see full Toyota Yaris review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Kia Stinger

2019 Kia Stinger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2018	Spring for the top-of-the-line Stinger GT2, and the Kia's driver seat gains power adjustments for its side bolsters and cushion length. The tested car was a GT1, yet I did not miss these adjustments. The seat fit me very well without them. I did miss the GT2's ventilated seats on hot days. And if your front seat passenger requires 4-way adjustable lumbar or either of you desires upgraded leather, then you'll also want the top trim. The tested Audi S5 Sportback was fitted with optional ventilated seats. Unfortunately, upgrading to these seats deletes the otherwise standard power-adjustable side bolsters (and massage function), and in this car I did miss having them. Compared to the Kia's, the Audi's seats are much firmer and not nearly as form-fitting. In my rating, I've assumed that the S5 Sportback's standard seats can be adjusted to provide better support than the optional ventilated seats. Otherwise I'd rate the Kia's front seats "much better." Moving to the back seat, in either car headroom should be just enough for adults up to about six feet in height. This is a big improvement over the initial iteration of the S5 Sportback. That car never made it to North America because of a severe rear headroom deficiency. When it comes to rear knee and leg room, the Stinger offers about two-and-a-half more inches. Rear seat passengers are likely to prefer the Kia, especially if they can't quite fit behind a tall driver in the S5. see full Kia Stinger review
