2006 Volkswagen Touareg Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 310-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range
The front seats in a Touareg are on par with the best seats from Mercedes and BMW. My back hates driving long distances, but you can drive this car till your eyes are crossed. Your butt and back never tire from these seats. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

Not very supportive. Felt like a hollowed out barrel. Only support was on the outside edges. see full Lexus ES review
