2008 Toyota Yaris Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

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

For the size of car, there is a lot of front seat room see full Toyota Yaris review

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

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

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

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

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

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

The design of the front seats makes it difficult to get four normally proportioned adults into a car which looks like it would accomodate them. The bolstering in the back makes the five-seater only take four. see full Toyota Corolla review

The car could be a bit wider to better accommodate 3 people in the back seat. see full Toyota Corolla review
