2016 Honda HR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2016 | Also like the Fit, the Honda HR-V leads its class in rear seat spaciousness. with a large-sedan-like 39.3 inches of legroom to the Chevrolet Trax's still adult-worthy 35.7. Rear headroom is ample in both pint-sized crossovers. Given the ability to carry four adults with room to spare, it's no surprise that many people are deciding that they don't need a larger vehicle. see full Honda HR-V review |
2016 Honda HR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
I hear more complaints about uncomfortable seats from Honda owners than from those of any other brand. The seats in compact Hondas also happen to be among my least favorite. Those in the HR-V, like the similar seats in the Fit, have a headrest and fixed lumbar bulge that jut too far forward for my personal build. The Trax seats also have a somewhat intrusive headrest, but a power-adjustable lumbar bulge. Try either out extensively before you buy to avoid an unpleasant surprise after the fact. see full Honda HR-V review |

The best thing is the flexibility of the cabin configuration. I have tall in-laws and my wife and I are both tall, so the adjustments you can make to the cabin configuration depending on the use are important. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

See above. When we are alone, we put the back seats all the way forward and the front seats all the way back, maximizing hauling space. When accompanied, we change it to maximize rear passenger spce. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

Seat is okay on the interstate, but on a twisty road - forget it! Good thing it has a drivers door and a console, otherwise you would fall out or wind up in the passenger seat. Speaking of the console, what a joke!!! Idiot that designed that should be see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
