What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Nissan Maxima

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

It fits everywhere. On a recent trip, I drove all day and was never "seat tired". 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

2007 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr SUV 266-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
The third row seating is only good for small children. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
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
