What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Acura MDX

2012 Acura MDX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 The interior prioritizes appearance over actual utility; it's surprisingly cramped for such a large vehicle. For example, my Highlander is roughly the same size externally but seems downright cavernous on the inside in comparison. A rear passenger can fully stretch out in the Toyota. Not so in the Acura. see full Acura MDX review

2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 The PT Cruiser is surprisingly roomy in the back seat, in terms of legroom and headroom. The backrest angle though is a bit too upright for full comfort. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2008 4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 I have a bad leg ,the high seat ,wide door opening and extra leg make it easy for me to swing my leg in and out. It has more room than lots of other cars. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2008 2dr Convertible turbocharged 180hp 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Can seat 2 adults comfortably. Plenty of leg room and visibility. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2007 2dr Convertible turbocharged 180hp 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Surprising amount of rear seat room see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
