TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2022 Volkswagen Taos
| 2022 Volkswagen Taos Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2022 | Volkswagen's "bigger for Americans" strategy continues with the Taos. Even though the new crossover is the smallest VW offers in North America, its rear passengers enjoy a seat set comfortably high off the floor and plenty of room for their heads, shoulders, and legs. On their spec sheets the Kia Seltos and Chevrolet TrailBlazer offer more combined legroom, but I observed more space in the VW. The top two trim levels include rear air vents. Why, then, would someone spend a few thousand more for the Tiguan? Perhaps they occasionally need a third-row seat but don't want a crossover the size of the Atlas. The Tiguan's second-row seat isn't quite as roomy as the Taos's, but unlike the latter it can slide and recline. see full Volkswagen Taos review | |

So bad I can't drive it much more than the 4 miles to and from work. The front seats are so hard that the first couple times I drove it I couldn't figure out why my feet were so cold. Because the circulation below my knees was being cutoff. I have tried extra cushions for the seat bottom and I have found something that really helps, but on longer drives, combined with the firm ride - bring your Advil. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review |
