After more than 500 highway miles, we can confidently attest to the 2007 Volkswagen Passat Wagon’s comfort. Our tester featured a driver’s seat with manually-adjustable height and power adjustments for tilt and lumbar, and with the tilt and telescoping steering wheel factored in, we had an easy time of finding a comfortable driving position. The bucket seats are well padded but firm enough to be supportive, with a lower section that’s plenty long for thigh support but a little light on bolsters (the seatback bolsters are more substantial). That’s only a problem in hard corners, where your legs rub against hard plastic on the door panels and center console. A height-adjustable center armrest is a definite plus.
