2008 Nissan Maxima Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2009 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD
Bucket seats hold you in around corners - very supportive. Telescopic steering wheel and power seats ensure you get a great driving position. Both seats and steering wheel are heated. Dual climate control great for passengers. see full Nissan Maxima review

The rear seat of the 7th gen Maxima is slightly smaller than that of the 6th gen Maxima. Still fairly roomy, but slightly smaller. This is understandable because of the major styling change, and the conversion from 'near luxury family sedan' back to 'near luxury family sedan with a sporty edge' that took place between these generations. see full Nissan Maxima review

It is small and crampy. A 6 ft person will not enjoy the backseat. It is good for kids and pre teens. However the boot (trunk) is quite small compared to a honda civi. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review

Rear seat room is horrble for a car this long, a RX-8 that is almost 10 inches shorter can easily fit people in the back better. Headroom is non-existent. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review
