Cars with Cramped Rear Seats

August 30, 2012

One great thing about large automotive sites like Cars.com is that they get to see and test every model on the market and can highlight vehicles to avoid.

This week, they alerted readers to 7 vehicles that have cramped rear legroom. You may not know it by reading the manufacturer specs because there is no standard way to measure rear legroom.

In their tests, Cars.com found that some cars simply have cramped rear seats compared to their competition. Here are the 7 vehicles Cars.com recommends you avoid if rear legroom is an issue:

2013 Chevrolet Malibu
2012 Ford Fiesta
2012 Hyundai Tucson
2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Lexus IS sedan
Mazda Mazda3
Toyota FJ Cruiser
