2014 Acura ILX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2013 | For me, Acura's front seats provide a very good combination of lateral support and comfort. Opinions of seats are bound to vary from person to person, though, as it's difficult to design one seat to fit all shapes and sizes of people. see full Acura ILX review |

The ILX's rear seat is considerably tighter than that in the Civic--functionality has been sacrificed in favor of a stylishly lower roofline. Six-foot passengers won't quite fit. see full Acura ILX review |

The seats are supportive without being rigid. I like the easy to clean, removable seating material. see full Nissan Xterra review |

The rear seat on the XTerra is not spacious, but it is sufficient for shorter adults, kids, and pets. At 6'4", I'm cramped and the narrow door opening doesn't help with access. Still, it's far less clastrophobic than the FJ Cruiser. see full Nissan Xterra review |
