Kinja'd!!!

Which one do you pick?

(Assume all vehicles are in brand new condition)

-You can use the amenities of the car from the back seat, but can’t climb onto the passenger seat.

-All cars will be driven in the same manner.

Lr2. It’s still within the acceptable range for leg-cramping, and the head and shoulder room would make all the difference over any trip more than an hour. There’s something to be said for not being made to *feel* cramped even if you physically aren’t.

Having sat in none of these back seats (though I did ride in the back of a Golf R), and assuming I am guaranteed immunity from breakdowns, I’ll take the Freelander.

the Azera, it’ll have the most comfortable ride and most rear-seat leg room.

Azera. I’ve bene in all 3 and spend a decent amount of road trip time in an azera and its by far the best road tripper.

Going cross country so I assume there might be some light off roading, & I want comfort. So the LR2.

This is tough. The Azera seems like it would be roomiest, but that seat shape doesn’t look awesome.

Haven’t sat in the back of any of these, but I’ll go with the Hyundai.

Rejecting the GTI right away since I am a tallish adult.

The Land Rover probably has the headroom, but likely the ride quality too similar to a 15 year old Ford Escape that I spent a lot of time in. Bad

The Hyundai looks like a big bag of marshmallows. Assuming I’ve got a place for my noggin AND my legs, that’s my choice.

I have already ridden cross country in the back of a 3-door mk 2 Golf. It was a pre-production model (my aunt worked for VW). I don’t care for the Freelander much, so I’ll go with the Azera.

Hyundai. Every time

I wouldn’t trust the LR2, and I don’t quite fit too well in the back of the GTI.

Since I’m strictly a passenger, I guess I’d prefer the Land Rover since it would provide an ever-so-slightly better view with the higher ride height/seating position.

Otherwise the Hyundai would be my next choice as it’d probably be the most comfortable.

Yeah, I’ll take the Azera.

The Freelander probably won’t make it, and the GTI would be cramped in comparison. And, this is a back seat thing, so driving experience doesn’t matter.
