Rear-facing child seat fits inside with room to spare for the front seats. Easier to get in and out of (and get children in and out of) than larger cars due to design of the body and door. see full Honda Fit review |

Small. Ok for 2 kids but not adequate for 3. (or at least my 3...) see full Honda Fit review |

Smaller than the Scion xB. see full Honda Fit review |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
No seat height adjustment makes my bad back scream on longer drives. No lumbar support. see full Honda Fit review |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The seats are reasonably comfortable but there is insufficient lumbar support. If you are middle-aged or older and have lower back trouble you may be uncomfortable on drives over 1-2 hours. There is no height adjustment for the drivers seat. see full Honda Fit review |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Zero lumbar support results in a sore back on longer trips. see full Honda Fit review |

No dead pedal. Awkward accelerator pedal. see full Honda Fit review |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
We don't think there would be room for two rear-facing car seats in the back, and I frequently have to sit in the back to let larger people sit in the front seat. see full Honda Fit review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Tilt and telescopic wheel plus the adjustments with the drivers seat had me in a very good/comfortable driving position. Being comfortable allows me to concentrate on the drive ahead instead of being distracted by squirming around in the seat. see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Being a 5 door hatch, there is plenty of room back for 2 full size adults or 3 kids/teenagers. The versatility of the hatch makes it feel like a Mini SUV. see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 167-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Very comfortable and form fitting. My butt and back feel supported. Leg room is great. see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 263hp 2.3L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Kids easily able to get in/out of back (4-doors) and often able to take co-workers to lunch (both of which is much more of a hassle with 2-doors). see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Lots of leg room even with the seat all the way back see full Mazda Mazda3 review |

Not enough comfort-room for my son (which meant that the Mazda failed the test). see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Tight and uncomfortable as are most other cars in this class. see full Mazda Mazda3 review |

Well, when the front seats are back, there is little leg room in the back seat -- to be expected in a compact. But, the rear seats are very comfortable and can handle a wider person. see full Mazda Mazda3 review |

good for a small child, but i would not want to ride back there for long see full Mazda Mazda3 review |
