2011 Volvo V50 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan turbocharged 113hp 1.6L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual FWD	Rear seat is slightly hampered by limited head/leg/sideways room, but for normal sized persons the seat is fantastic for two with splending leg and back support. Car is also very silent, making long drives a pleasure. see full Volvo V50 review
2010	4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Lots of front seat room. Good dash design accommodates tall passengers with rear facing car seat behind. Seat was vertically adjustable providing lots of hear room. see full Volvo V50 review
