What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2017 Toyota Highlander

2017 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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

2007 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 A little tight up front especially when compared to the M35 which is very roomy. see full Acura RL review
2007 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Again, tight when compared to the M35. see full Acura RL review
