2010 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4

Compared to other sporty wagons (BMW, Subaru) the Passat has about 3" more rear leg room - enough to put my full-size parents and/or friends in the back seat without making them do contortions. Easier to get a child in and out of a rear safety seat, too. see full Volkswagen Passat review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Audi A3

2014 Audi A3 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
There aren't many clear reasons not to buy an Audi A3. In fact, there might only be one: the front seats. These are firm, flat, and unless you're quite wide they provide absolutely no lateral support. In hard turns I relied on a knee and the steering wheel to keep from sliding off the seat. In the base A3's passenger seat there's little lumbar support and no adjuster to address this. To get a power passenger seat complete with four-way lumbar adjustment it's necessary to spend another $2,900 for the Premium Plus Package. see full Audi A3 review
