What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Mazda CX-9

2012 Mazda CX-9 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 273-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Seat hugs in the right places without being cumbersome. Headrest position is much better than the midsize GM vehicles I test-drove (Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave). see full Mazda CX-9 review
