TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan
| 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | Based on the specs, the Tiguan suffers from insufficient dimensions. It's 3.6 inches less lengthy than the Escape, and as a result has an inch less legroom. And the Ford falls near the bottom of the segment in this spec. In the real world, though, the Tiguan's rear seat feels roomier and more comfortable than the Escape's and in the ballpark with the class leaders. A relatively large seat bottom is high enough off the floor to provide adults with thigh support. The rear seat back is more comfortably shaped than the compact crossover norm, and reclines. One nit: hard plastic isn't the most comfortable surface for a rear armrest. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review | |

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Ingress is tight, limited legroom. see full Cadillac CTS review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The rear seats are a little snug, but bareable. However, if someone is pretty tall they might bump their head on the ceiling. see full Cadillac CTS review |
