2012 Honda Pilot Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	The front seat did not go back far enough for a very tall person, headroom was good, head rest pushes your head forward which is horrible. Passenger seat has a glove box near ankles which hits your shins. I guess they used midgets to design the car. see full Honda Pilot review
2012	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	I actually thought the limited edition of the pilot had a nice leather seats and I liked the position of the video screen. The only part that bothered me was access to the third row was circus like. see full Honda Pilot review
2011	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	This seat was not made for long distance driving. The armrest on the door feels cushy, but after a couple of hours your elbow is pretty much on hard plastic. see full Honda Pilot review
