The seats go way back and have a high range of motion. This car is more roomy than my previous car which was a 2002 Acura TL. see full Volkswagen CC review |

The cc only seats four. This is only a downfall if seating 5 is going to be necessary. The rear seat is very stylish and comfortable though. see full Volkswagen CC review |
2017 Lexus RX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Lexus RX has the roomiest back seat of the three, the Lincoln MKX the tightest. Very tall people will prefer the RX's. At 5-9, I'm not tall, and found the other two back seats much more comfortable, with higher, better shaped cushions providing better thigh support and seat backs that were not overly reclined. The RX's rear seat back felt overly reclined to me even in its most upright position. Since it adjusts, why didn't Lexus engineer it to adjust over a wider range? see full Lexus RX review |
