What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Mazda CX-9

2011 Mazda CX-9 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Nissan Pathfinder

2006 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic RWD
Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review
