What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Infiniti M

2011 Infiniti M Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 420-horsepower 5.6L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Very comfortable up front. see full Infiniti M review
2011 4dr Sedan 330-horsepower 3.7L V6
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The footwells are very narrow for a car of this size. This is a side-effect of it being RWD. The "dead" pedal seems to be in the wrong spot, at least for me; it's too far to the right. On the plus side the air conditioned seats are great. It is possible to drive around in 90 degree weather wearing shorts, with the windows down, and feel comfortable. see full Infiniti M review

The fronts seats need more bolstering. The BMW 5 series has much, much better seats. If I could change one thing about the car, it would be the seats. Anyone considering this car should sit in the seat at least 30 minutes before making a purchase decision. see full Infiniti M review

2013 0 Seats mold to your body and they heat up fast which helps in winter. see full Hyundai Elantra review

2013 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
This is really not a con. If they offered the option of a front passenger power seat with lumbar as an option, I along with many others would likely opt for it. see full Hyundai Elantra review
