What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Toyota Highlander

2012 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Perfect for two car seats. Really neat trick - the middle seat for the 2nd row rolls up into the center console. I did not remove it nor attempt to sit in it but that does make the 3rd row more likely to be used for those with car seats. I did not attempt to sit in the 3rd row (looked at it before folding into the floor for cargo space for the entire trip) so cannot opine on it. Use at your own risk. see full Toyota Highlander review

I am 6 foot tall, and there is plenty of head and leg room in the driving position. Easy access as well. see full Toyota Highlander review

3rd row seats are useless to me. Too little room for adults. Should have been an option for families with small children. With 3rd row seating, you lose storage space. see full Toyota Highlander review

I have arthritis and it is great to have a seat that i can lower and slide way back. Not just great - it was important in the purchase decision. . see full Toyota Camry review

Rear seat is large and lots of leg room. Nice feature is the center armrest, which many cars in this price range do not have. see full Toyota Camry review

The wings are not angled up too steeply for my wide, creaky hips. I still need a two-inch foam insert to see properly and compensate for the lack of OEM padding in the seat, though. see full Toyota Camry review

These seats seem to have been designed for someone 250 pounds. Wide, flat, and no proper support for your back. While this has a lumbar support for the driver, the poor seat design makes this uncomfortable for long trips. see full Toyota Camry review

It could not seat three adults, while the Ford could easily seat three large people, and give them limo-like legroom. see full Toyota Camry review
