2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	The captains chairs in the second row can be apart or together. It is easy to get to the third row seat.

2005	4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	Split 3rd row is great (3 kids) - access is great. 2nd row bucket seats are easy to access and very comfortable. see full Honda Odyssey review

2006 Honda Odyssey Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	No back support, no thigh support. Seat headrests curve your spine forward. Seat shape was not the same for all four captain chairs. Quality control must be very poor. see full Honda Odyssey review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Worst driver seat ever--both bottom and back are poorly shaped. Cannot drive more than a few minutes without pain--so have modified with air cushion and pillows, but only partially mitigates. see full Honda Odyssey review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Acura TSX

2009 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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

2009 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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
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
2009	4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	If the front seats are pushed back, not a lot of foot room in back see full Acura TSX review
2009	4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	There could have been a bit more rear leg space - althoug, the seats are pretty comfortable. see full Acura TSX review
2008	4dr Sedan 205-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Smaller than comparably priced sedans. see full Acura TSX review
