A lot less leg room when compared to the GTI, but the rear hatch space is bigger. see full Audi A3 review |

Really just a 4 place vehicle...3 across in the rear is not comfortably possible. see full Audi A3 review |

2010 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The bench seat is a bit uncomfortable and 2 adults and a booster seat is only really workable for short trips. Leg room is pretty small for big passangers. see full Honda Fit review |

The front seats are very uncomfortable. I would not enjoy taking the Fit on a long drive. The uncomfortable front seats cancel out how amazing the magic seats in back are. see full Honda Fit review |
