What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Acura TSX

2011 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I find the heated front seats exceptionally comfortable. I am 6' 2" and have very good room. Note, however, that my wife finds the forward lean in the headrests uncomfortable. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Drove 4 straight hours in these seats. They hug in corners and don't leave you butt feeling numb even after long drives. Not many seats out there that are more comfortable (Volvo is one of the makers that comes to mind with better seats) see full Acura TSX review
2011 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The rear seats are fairly comfortable, but they only provide about 34" of legroom, and there is very little clearance below the seats. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
The rear seats can be a little tight for people on the tallish side (for me, anything above 5'10"). This can get more complicated with a tall driver/front passenger and tall rear seat occupants. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
The trunk space is adequate, but get a hatchback or wagon (or SUV if you're into that sort of thing) if you're going to regularly carrying anything more than the usual grocery bags, suitcases, golf bags, etc. That said, the 60/40 split fold rear seats will allow for surprisingly longish items to fit (managed a 6 foot ladder, barely). see full Acura TSX review

2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

Excellent for tall, long legged people - even more leg room than a Cadillac, which appears larger. My children love it! Also plenty of head room for tall people. see full Toyota Prius review

2009 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
No height adjustment and a bizarre seating angle. see full Toyota Prius review
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
Seat needs more lower back support for distance driving. see full Toyota Prius review
2008 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
CVT FWD
If you are much over 5 foot 10 inches tall, the drivers seat might get a little tight. Not much leg support either as the bottom cushion is very short. I hear the 2010 redesign helped with this. Since I use this car for not much more than an hour commute, I tolerate the seat as the rest of the car is so darn good. see full Toyota Prius review
