What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Volkswagen Touareg

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

2006 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic RWD
Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review
