TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Honda Fit
| 2014 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2013 | The new Honda Fit's first row has a a few more inches of elbow room than those in the Versa Note and Fiesta. Consequently, it feels like a larger car--unless you also need leg room. Then it's no better than the Nissan. Drivers with long legs will wish the front seat could slide back farther--but this would cramp the magic style of the rear seat. Even drivers of middling height (e.g. me) might find the driver seat uncomfortable. The headrest and non-adjustable lumbar bulge both jut well forward. Depending on your personal size and shape, this might or might not be an issue. Pay close attention before you buy. see full Honda Fit review | |

Seat bottoms are typical Japanese style short bottomed and not conducive to long duration drives. see full Honda Fit review |

One more thing. Rear seat comfort was obviously not a big selling point, nor a necessary feature. But one piece of it was worse than it had to be: the rear seat headrests. The artful circular shape and limited adjustment made the rear seats even harder to use; the headrest would tend to jab passengers in their spine. A better solution which was more even with the seat back would really have helped here. see full Honda Fit review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Driving 4-5 hours in a row left no fatigue or discomfort in my back or legs. The seats are just firm enough but very supportive where they need to be. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |

Can spend all day driving this car and not be exhausted. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 382-horsepower 5.5L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The most comfortable seats among all its rivals including Lexus, Jaguar, BMW, Audi, and Infiniti. Plenty of adjustments in the seat and the telescoping steering wheel. Plenty of front seat room for people 6 foot tall and more. Provides ample support. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Much better sized for me. My prior 2007 three series BMW was too small and cramped. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |

| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Very comfortable, firm seating,even after very long drives. The combination of lumbar support and heat leaves me refreshed after eight- and nine-hour drives. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I could fall asleep in this thing. Great seat heaters and adjustability. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |

The back seat is very comfortable and provides good headroom and seating support. They fold down to provide additional storage room. My complaint is that it is not S class roomy in the back. Leg and foot room can be limited if sitting behind a tall driver see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
