2019 Toyota RAV4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
I initially noted that the well-bolstered driver seat felt "ok." But after a few hours in it my rear started to feel sore. To be fair, I haven't had enough seat time in competitors to state that they fit me better. And even if they do, this could just be me. People come in many different shapes and sizes, have different postures, and so forth. Pity seat designers! The upshot: no one else can tell you how comfortable a seat will be for you. Make the test drive as long as you can before buying. see full Toyota RAV4 review |

Seats are comfortable but the cockpit seems designed to enfold you and while there is plenty of dose it doesn't feel roomy. The console is over large. see full Toyota RAV4 review |
2009 Honda Ridgeline Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2010 | 4dr SUT 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
The interior is the Ridgelines stronges point. Comfortable front and back and a feeling a space. The lack of transmission tunnel and column mounted shifter in particular make the front cabin roomy. see full Honda Ridgeline review |
2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Plenty of room and comfort for 5 passengers. Easy to put seats up or down, depending on hauling needs. Rear seat access is easy via the full-size rear passenger doors. Ventilation is good with the rear-vents between the front seats. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

Very good leg room and back of seat angled properly see full Honda Ridgeline review |
2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Plenty of comfortable seat with the split bench. Can fit a car seat on the smaller right side and still have room for two adults with reasonable leg room. Both sides of the split bench can be easily flipped up for increased storage or down for seating. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

The rear seat is very spacious and relatively comfortable. see full Honda Ridgeline review |
