2007 Pontiac Torrent Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The rear seat slides for and aft making for lots of leg room or more cargo space when you need it. I also like the center armrest and upright position. see full Pontiac Torrent review |

2011 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 260-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD |
The seats are deeply upholstered and have generous side bolsters. Beneath the deep cushions there seems to be a well-designed form that bodes well for long trips. see full Nissan Quest review |
