2014 Volkswagen Jetta Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	The Jetta is a little longer than the ILX (182 vs. 179 inches), and all of the additional inches appear to have gone into the rear seat. While the average adult will barely fit into the back seat of the Acura (those over 5-9 will be on close terms with the headliner), the Jetta has significantly more rear headroom and more rear legroom than the average midsize sedan, much less the average compact. If you like a roomy rear seat, you'll love the Jetta. Room is one thing, comfort another. The rear seat feels overly hard, and neither the cushion nor the backrest was set at a comfortable angle for me. Clearly some German engineer found these angles optimal, though. So maybe it's just me. see full Volkswagen Jetta review

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 242-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Plenty of room for the kids, dog and cat for those cross country trips and we do many of them. see full Hyundai Entourage review

2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 242-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The centre row seats recline and move back for more leg room. The rear row reclines as well making for a comfortable ride instead of being crammed in the back of a minivan. see full Hyundai Entourage review

2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 242-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I could not find a comfortable place for my left leg, no matter how the seat position was adjusted. I am six feet tall. see full Hyundai Entourage review
