2012 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

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'm 6'3'' 280 lbs, and this car has plenty of room. It is easier to get in and out of than any full size sedan I have driven. It sits upright like an SUV, but it is not so tall that you have to climb in. see full smart fortwo review |
