2012 Acura MDX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
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 |

I am 6 foot tall, 250 lbs and have plenty of room in the front seat. The driver's position holds me well and i do not feel like i am falling out of the seat when cornering. The passenger seat sits higher than i want, but there is plenty of room there as well. see full Toyota Corolla review |

Small and cram even for 5ft 6in male. Can pull back seat for more comfort but makes back seat even less comfortable and cram. see full Toyota Corolla review |

Since front seat feel cram at initial spacing it cause most front seat user to pull back seat for more comfort but makes back seat even less comfortable and cram. see full Toyota Corolla review |
