Feels more expensive and luxurious, like a Jaguar see full Nissan Murano review |
2007 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD |
It is large enough to comfortably seat three people, plus still having a large capacity trunk. see full Nissan Murano review |
2007 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD |
Perfect for a taller person; longer seat bottom gives better support; 8 way seat lets one get just the right position. see full Nissan Murano review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD |
Even I can ride in the back seat. Not something that I can do in a lot of cars. see full Nissan Murano review |

I had a Camaro once, and the seats would have been better suited to that, rather than a crossover to take to work and back. The lumbar hurt, no matter where I set it. see full Nissan Murano review |
2019 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2020 | 4dr SUV 295-horsepower 3.5L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The 3rd row seating is just not for adults at all, and I'm not certain that children would be easy to fit back there as well. I'm not sure what Toyota was thinking, even making the 2020 longer didn't make any difference at all. My one complaint is it is just TOO SMALL! see full Toyota Highlander review |
2018 | 4dr SUV 295-horsepower 3.5L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
3rd row seat is midget sized. Claiming that the Highlander is an 8-passenger vehicle is a lie. It's either 5 normal-sized people, or Snow White and the 7 dwarfs. There is no way you can accommodate 8 normal-sized people comfortably in this car. see full Toyota Highlander review |
