Again, cramped and too small for larger people. see full Subaru Forester review |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
This is honesty the only complaint i have about the 2006 XT. The rear seat is a bit tight. We took three other adults on about a 4 hour trip and it was a tight fit - good thing we're good friends! My wife's 2009 Forester is much better in the rear legroom department. see full Subaru Forester review |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Rear seat is just too small, but that has been fixed for the 2009 models. The front seat, actually the cabin of the car is just a bit too narrow. It needs more elbow room. see full Subaru Forester review |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Not enough elbow room. see full Subaru Forester review |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Rear seat room is a bit tight for larger people. Car seats are a little tight in both rear and forward facing positions. see full Subaru Forester review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Acura TSX
| 2011 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I find the heated front seats exceptionally comfortable. I am 6' 2" and have very good room. Note, however, that my wife finds the forward lean in the headrests uncomfortable. see full Acura TSX review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Drove 4 straight hours in these seats. They hug in corners and don't leave you butt feeling numb even after long drives. Not many seats out there that are more comfortable (Volvo is one of the makers that comes to mind with better seats) see full Acura TSX review |
| 2011 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The rear seats are fairly comfortable, but they only provide about 34" of legroom, and there is very little clearance below the seats. see full Acura TSX review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The rear seats can be a little tight for people on the tallish side (for me, anything above 5'10"). This can get more complicated with a tall driver/front passenger and tall rear seat occupants. see full Acura TSX review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The trunk space is adequate, but get a hatchback or wagon (or SUV if you're into that sort of thing) if you're going to regularly carrying anything more than the usual grocery bags, suitcases, golf bags, etc. That said, the 60/40 split fold rear seats will allow for surprisingly longish items to fit (managed a 6 foot ladder, barely). see full Acura TSX review |
