2010	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT AWD	Hip point makes easy entry/egress. Supports my 265 pound frame. Offers enough leg/hip/shoulder room. Seats are heated, which is great in the cold Arctic.

2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	The power driver seat and tilting/telescopic steer wheel puts you in perfect driving position- I felt that the RAV-4s steering wheel was always too far away. see full Nissan Murano review

2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	There is plenty of room in the front seat area. It feels open and spacious. Tall drivers might find they would like a little more headroom or the ability to lower the seat another inch. see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	The rear set is large and fairly comfortable with plenty of leg room and easy access. The rear seat backs recline, making them more comfortable for travel. see full Nissan Murano review

2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT AWD	Slghtly less leg room for 2nd row passenger see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Overall, the seat is too soft. The seatback is completely lacking in lateral support and the cushion is too short with no thigh support. It�s fine for around town driving, but tiring after just an hour of highway travel. The lumbar support is decent, b see full Nissan Murano review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Toyota Camry

2012 Toyota Camry Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Being 6' 3" it can be hard to find a car where I have sufficient legroom & headroom. In the Fusion Hybrid there was lots of space, even with a sunroof. There are also padded surfaces where my left knee rests against the door and where my right leg rests against the center console. The Camry Hybrid was not comfortable. The doors are hard plastic and there was no soft place to rest my knee. The center console was also hard plastic. see full Toyota Camry review
2012	4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	We will use this as a "road car" on longer trips so front seat comfort along with interior -and- trunk room is very good, better than Kia Optima considered. Two large adults comment rear seat also very comfortable. Front seat easier exit too. see full Toyota Camry review

2012 Toyota Camry Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	0	Nice ergonomic shape, but not enough padding. Leather seats feel decidedly firm after two months of ownership. Seat cushion length should be slightly longer for thigh support. see full Toyota Camry review
2012	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	The door sills are very high which made it tough for me to get my size 13 shoes up and over when sitting behind a front seat that is all the way back. The door sills in the Camry were lower so while there was no more rear seat room than in the Fusion is was possible to get my feet out more easily. see full Toyota Camry review
2012	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	You can see I'm really reaching here to find things that we didn't like about the Fusion Hybrid, but here's one more... There is a small step up in front of the front seats which made it hard to cross my legs like when traveling on road trips. see full Toyota Camry review
2012	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	front seat could be improved for better thigh support for tall drivers see full Toyota Camry review
