What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Chevrolet Equinox

2009 Chevrolet Equinox Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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
2008	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	The bucket seats are at a perfect height for easy entry and exit. Also there is a liftable arm rest between the seats for storing purse, etc. which eliminates the need for reaching to the back when the passenger seat is occupied. see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2008	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Ample leg and hip room. I am only 5foot 4 inches but have a wide posterior. Seat is comfortable for me. My son is 6 foot 3 inches and medium build. He has ample leg and body room. see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2008	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	The rear bench seat can slide forward or back. When slid back, there is ample leg room for even the tallest of passengers. see full Chevrolet Equinox review
2008	4dr SUV 264-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The rear seat can slide forward and back 8" providing generous leg room for rear passengers. see full Chevrolet Equinox review

2009 Chevrolet Equinox Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	The most room of any "small" P/U truck. Comfortable driving position with lots of leg room. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Cabin width. Big, comfy heated leather seats. The back seats are flatter and less comfortable, but kids like them just fine. The cabin has plenty of room and many storage bins. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Room to seat three person comfortably in the rear seat. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	There is no hump in the floor, thus allowing the rear seat to accommodate three adults. The seat is split for folding up for more flexibility. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Lots of legroom and comfortable seats, like sitting in an easy chair. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	A lot of room for a pickup truck. 3 adults can sit in the back. An adult can even sit in the middle between 2 car seats. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2006	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	i fit well see full Honda Ridgeline review
2006	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	WE FIT COMFORTABLY THERE AS DO OUR 2 KIDS AND 2 LABS. IF YOU PUT THE SEATS UP THERE IS A LOT OF SPACE FOR ADDITIONAL CARGO. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2006	4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	Very roomy, nice leather, good seat adjustability. see full Honda Ridgeline review
