TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Volkswagen Passat

| Year | Comment | |
| 2012 | Volkswagen's research must have found that Americans highly value rear legroom, because the Passat has an abundance of it. Unless you're an NBA center you'll have plenty of room to stretch out in the back of this sedan. see full Volkswagen Passat review | |

I like the seats in this car a lot. The bolsters feel well placed and keep you from moving around too much when cornering with enthusiasm, and they're comfortable to sit in overall. see full Infiniti G review |
