Great - lots of leg room and very adjustable see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

Rear seat slides 8" forward and back. In the back position, excellent leg room for adults. When slid forward, good rear cargo room. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

It gets more comfortable the more I drive and I do take long drives at times see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

Front seat comfort and room is great. Driver side lumbar support continues to work great. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

We really like the track sliding nature of the rear seat. Give passengers in the back plenty of leg room. Also, the large rear doors make it quite easy for our aging parents to get in and out of this vehicle. This feature, more than any other, really "sold" us on the Chevy Equinox. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

The equinox was one of the very few cars that could swallow both a double stroller and two infant seats with ease. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

Front seats are not very supportive, and you sink down into them see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

I like the firmness of the front seats, but others may have an issue with it. Seat width leans to the narrow side however, and shoulder room is merely adequate. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

Rear seat legroom is phenominal (and one of the big reasons I chose the Equinox) when you slide it all the way back. This is the first vehicle I've owned where you can fit 4 6'+ people without anyone having to readjust their seats or compromise in any way. The rear seats also recline to a small degree which is an added bonus. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The caravan style arm rests are ugly but extremely comfortable. see full Honda CR-V review |

Very comfortable to enter and exit. Very comfortable to sit in for long trips. see full Honda CR-V review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Looking for familly smallish SUV and our other option was a RAV-4, the CR-V felt like it had better hip and leg room in the rear. see full Honda CR-V review |

Could not find a comfortable position, even with a power seat. see full Honda CR-V review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Roomy enough, but materials feel cheap. Bench is very thin and hard on long trip. Good leg room, but overall not as nicely done as the VW Tiguan. see full Honda CR-V review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Seats need another couple of inches of depth to provide anyone over six feet tall with proper thigh support. A little on the firm side after a couple of hours. Could also be improved with better lateral support. Not a deal breaker unless you expect a Volvo type lounger. see full Honda CR-V review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
In typical Japanese Small Car fashion, the front seats have very little thigh support for a 5ft 10inch person. The back support and position can be quite painful over 500 or more miles. This marred the ownership experience see full Honda CR-V review |

Headrest could not be adjusted comfortably. see full Honda CR-V review |
