TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2022 Toyota Highlander

2022 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
With each redesign (for 2008, 2014, and 2020) Toyota has enlarged the Highlander, yet the crossover's third-row seat remains uncomforably low and tight. For adults to be even passably comfortable in the way-back the second row must be slid forward, rendering legroom there also marginal. Some three-row crossovers have much roomier and more comfortable third-row seats. But if you want to be able to squeeze in eight people, Highlanders with a second-row bench can do this. Because they have significantly narrower third-row seats, the Ford Explorer and Kia Sorento cannot fit three people back there even in a pinch, so in hybrid form the former has a maximum capacity of seven people and the latter only six. (The Sorento PHEV will be able to seat seven.) This noted, if you want your adult passengers to have plenty of room, the practical capacity of each is four people. see full Toyota Highlander review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Kia Forte

2011 Kia Forte Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Plenty of room, indeed there may be too much room as it is a bit of a reach to unlock the passenger side door, almost impossible to adjust the passenger door mirror and lower the passenger window? Forget it. Plenty of elbow room. see full Kia Forte review
2011 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
My Jazz Bass, in its case, fits on the floor between the front and rear seats. Just like the front seats, there is plenty of room for two and adequate room for three. see full Kia Forte review
2011 Kia Forte Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I feel the seat is to far away from the wheel and the pedals are angled to steeply. The dead pedal is perfect though. see full Kia Forte review
2010 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
too small and too tight. see full Kia Forte review
