2012 Acura MDX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||

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 |
2013 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
When I first drove an Evoque, I found its front seats cushier and more comfortable than those in the X1. But that was for a short test drive. With more seat time later, the seat felt overly firm beneath my bum and the left seat cushion bolster pressed uncomfortably into my thigh. We're all shaped differently, and we sit differently as well, so your impressions may vary. As with any car, try to get as much seat time as you can before buying--few things are harder than seat comfort to evaluate during a test drive. see full Land Rover Range Rover Evoque review |

Astonishingly, the rear seats in this small SUV seat two six footers (and another, smaller middle passenger) very comfortably. see full Land Rover Range Rover Evoque review |
