2008 Volvo C30 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2008 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I tested both the Mini Cooper and Volvo C30. The C30, by far, is the most comfortable and easy to find a great driving position. Driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco without any back or shoulder fatigue! see full Volvo C30 review

2018 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

3rd row seat is midget sized. Claiming that the Highlander is an 8-passenger vehicle is a lie. It's either 5 normal-sized people, or Snow White and the 7 dwarfs. There is no way you can accommodate 8 normal-sized people comfortably in this car. see full Toyota Highlander review
