2015 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Toyota replaced the 2013 Highlander's rear struts with control arms to enable a three-inch-wider third-row seat, and then used the extra space to cram in a third seating position. So if you need seats for eight people, only the Highlander will do in this threesome. A top-of-the-line Santa Fe only seats six. Other eight-pass options include the Honda Pilot and GM's large crossovers. But those three people best be small, as the Highlander doesn't have nearly as much rear legroom as the Pathfinder or the Santa Fe. To fit children of even middling size in the third row it's necessary to slide the second row well forward. The second row seat cushion is mounted too low for adult comfort. The Nissan's second row suffers from a similar shortcoming, but the Hyundai's does not. see full Toyota Highlander review

2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	When I first drove an Evoque, I found its front seats cushier and more comfortable than those in the X1. But that was for a short test drive. With more seat time later, the seat felt overly firm beneath my bum and the left seat cushion bolster pressed uncomfortably into my thigh. We're all shaped differently, and we sit differently as well, so your impressions may vary. As with any car, try to get as much seat time as you can before buying--few things are harder than seat comfort to evaluate during a test drive. see full Land Rover Range Rover Evoque review
