What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Nissan Xterra
2006 |
4dr SUV 265-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The seats are supportive without being rigid. I like the easy to clean, removable seating material.

2007 Nissan Xterra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons |

4dr SUV 265-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The rear seat on the XTerra is not spacious, but it is sufficient for shorter adults, kids, and pets. At 6'4", I'm cramped and the narrow door opening doesn't help with access. Still, it's far less clastrophobic than the FJ Cruiser.

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Lexus IS
2014 |
Following the Germans' lead, many car makers have been fitting firmer and firmer seats. Cadillac might have once been known for seats you could sink deep into, but those in the ATS are the opposite, with too little give and contours that are far from form-fitting. No fear, Lexus hasn't done the same with the IS. Even the more heavily bolstered seats that are part of the F Sport package lack hard points, which helps them provide a slop-free fit for a wide range of body types. (Oddly, you'll find seats similar to these in some Chrysler people haulers.) Personally, I wouldn't mind a little firmer support, but then I also prefer a firm mattress. Notably, the lumbar support in the Lexus IS is only two-way and the spread of the side bolsters is not adjustable. For four-way lumbar support and adjustable side bolsters (plus somewhat firmer support) you need to step up to the larger Lexus GS.
