2007 Kia Spectra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2008 | 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Very comfortable for prolonged around-town driving, not bad for long trips. Could use adjustable lumbar support, but all other adjustments are very good. The non-sueded cloth is comfortable and durable. see full Kia Spectra review |
