TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Volvo XC60

2013 Volvo XC60 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2014 Volvos have long been renowned for seat comfort, and the XC60 continues this tradition with seats that are thoroughly supportive without being as firm as those in the Cadillac and in the German crossovers. This said, some people might find the headrests overly intrusive. The Inscription Package adds power lumbar adjusters to both seats. Otherwise these adjusters are manual. Notable in its absence: front seat ventilation, offered in the Audi and Cadillac, isn't an option in the XC60. Also, no massage. see full Volvo XC60 review

Very flexible seating positions. Middle row adjusts so you can tailor leg room for the rear most passengers or provide second row with max space if desired. see full Mazda CX-9 review

I would rather have more second row leg room and no third row. My third row is always folded down for cargo anyway. see full Mazda CX-9 review
