Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Great - lots of leg room and very adjustable see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	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
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	It gets more comfortable the more I drive and I do take long drives at times see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I have two children and they can ride back there comfortablely see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Just might be enough for a 7 footer. see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2010	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Front seat comfort and room is great. Driver side lumbar support continues to work great. see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2010	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	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
2010	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	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

2011 Chevrolet Equinox Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Front seats are not very supportive, and you sink down into them see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2010	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	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
2010	4dr SUV 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	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

2011	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Very comfortable rear seats and climate controls, even for tall people. see full Honda Pilot review
2011	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Roomy and very adjustable. see full Honda Pilot review
2010	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Ability to make adjustments to fit all drivers in the family, supportive and comfortable over long drives see full Honda Pilot review

2011 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
