I have found no issues with seat comfort or adjustability. In fact I quite like that the seat automatically slides backwards and lifts the steering wheel up while in park to make entry/exit easy. Put it in drive and everything slides back into position. Lots of headroom for taller folk. Now, the seats are not range rover massaging seats, but they've been plenty comfortable for road trips - the fact that the rest of the car is so convenient from autopilot to charging and a great infotainment system, it actually makes everything about the drive that much more comfortable if that makes sense.

It is definitely more stiff than I'm used to (recent experiences with BMW, Audi, Lincoln, Porsche, Land Rover). You feel the road more, but it's not to the extent that I find it uncomfortable. I went with the 19 inch wheels and think it would likely be more harsh on the 20s or 21s.

Thanks very much, I am used to a soft-plush ride and for that reason would like an S, but my budget might dictate a 3. Or my budget might dictate a Toyota Yaris…
