at 6' 3" the rear seating with sun roof is a little tight. If you are taller than me do not plan to spend much time in the rear. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Fiesta

2011 Ford Fiesta Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4
6-speed automatic FWD
Its cramped, but seems about the same as any other car in its size range. It was easier to get in and out of compared to a Mazda 2 and about the same as current generation Prius C. I wouldn't take anyone long distances in the rear, but I didn't expect to. We have a 2009 Prius which is our long distance carry people car. I wanted something with good handling and economy that was well built and that's what I got. see full Ford Fiesta review

Smallish like all b-segment cars. see full Ford Fiesta review

Rear seat legroom is limited, especially if front seat passengers adjust their seats rearward. see full Ford Fiesta review
2011 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4

Basically, it is a two seater. Car seats and small children will fit ok in the back. Essentially it is a great commuter car. see full Ford Fiesta review

rear seat leg room is tight. see full Ford Fiesta review
