TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Infiniti JX

2013 Infiniti JX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 I'm struggling to come up with a fifth reason for buying the Infiniti JX. Not because the rest of the vehicle is bad, but because in the great majority of aspects it's neither notably good nor notably bad compared to competitors. They're all fairly quick, smooth, and quiet. If I have to pick a fifth reason, then it's third row room and comfort. A Buick Enclave has a roomier third row, but both the Acura MDX and the Audi Q7 do worse. This said, the second row must be slid forward to provide legroom to people in the third row. The seats in both rearward rows are of the low-mounted, flat-cushioned variety typical of the segment, so they're not very comfortable for adults. You'll find a more adult-friendly second row in some large crossovers, especially those from Ford and Lincoln. see full Infiniti JX review

Amazing rear seat comfort and even 3rd row seats are awesome!! I am 6'4" (with a longer torso) and I can get in the car easy, and sit comfortably in the 3rd row!! Great DVD system and air climate control for the rear seated passangers. see full Infiniti JX review

Awesome. Great layout of everything. The most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. Great for long drives over 3 hours. I wish my Toyota 4unner seats were as comfortable; they are only good for about 1 hour, max. see full Infiniti JX review

5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Perfect for two car seats. Really neat trick - the middle seat for the 2nd row rolls up into the center console. I did not remove it nor attempt to sit in it but that does make the 3rd row more likely to be used for those with car seats. I did not attempt to sit in the 3rd row (looked at it before folding into the floor for cargo space for the entire trip) so cannot opine on it. Use at your own risk. see full Toyota Highlander review

I am 6 foot tall, and there is plenty of head and leg room in the driving position. Easy access as well. see full Toyota Highlander review

3rd row seats are useless to me. Too little room for adults. Should have been an option for families with small children. With 3rd row seating, you lose storage space. see full Toyota Highlander review
