2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6

2009 Nissan Quest Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD
The seat is not as comfortable as Chrysler or Toyota. This is not an issue except for very long trips (6-8 hrs). see full Nissan Quest review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Toyota Highlander

2019 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
