| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2013 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I like to drive small cars, but I am a large man. (6'3" and about 290lbs.) I love the seating position of the Fiat, as it sits higher, so I don't have to bend down as far to get in, as on the Mini Cooper or the Miatas I used to drive. The driving position is more upright, which I find more comfortable as well. The base model (Pop) seats are comfortable, though I would like to have the leather seats of the "Lounge" model. Ride quality is very good. There is no harshness and I easily rate it better than the Honda Civic I traded for it (2006) and many other, larger cars I drove. It is also one of the quieter cars I've owned. see full Fiat 500 review |

Rear seating is very cramped, and the ease of entry/exit is poor. Think of the rear seats as emergency seating- like a Porsche 911, and you get the idea. No one will want to travel across town in the rear seats. Forget a road trip entirely. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Roomy in front but narrow. With two people in front you're bound to rub shoulders or arms when using the arm rests. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I would not put anyone on the rear seats. Maybe very short people for short distances. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2013 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
As previously mentioned, I would not want to use my rear seat on a regular basis. It is tight in back, and I think of it as emergency seating. see full Fiat 500 review |

Yeah, don't try to ride in the back if you are as big as me. But my kids 8 & 11 fit just fine. My family of 4 has taken the Fiat on several small family trips. I wouldn't drive with them more than a couple of hours each way, as they start to get antsy, but the kids love the car for short trips. see full Fiat 500 review |

Rear seat is what it is..Small but bigger then you think.. I'm 5'9 and there is still leg room behind me..But for any real distance I would think it's better for kids.. This isn't really a "Con" as your buyig a small car for fun and mileage not leg room... You think this is small try a mini-Cooper back seat see full Fiat 500 review |

| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Even with the front driver and passenger seats move all the way to the back of their tracks and reclined somewhat, there is still plenty of legroom for backseat passengers (even 6 footers). This is really a full size sedan and not a mid-size. see full Honda Accord review |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Front seats offer plenty of range of motion. They are comfortable for extended periods of time. Side bolsters are not too soft, not to rigid. Just right. see full Honda Accord review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
lots of room. after sitting for a while, you have enough room to readjust yourself because of how much room there is. see full Honda Accord review |

This sedan has the most comfort of any sedan I have been in. Others may have had a little more room like the camry but the accord was more comfortable. I am also 6 foot 4 and plenty of head room. see full Honda Accord review |

Lumbar support is too aggressive, and it is non-adjustable in the LX model. I have gotten used to them, but they are nowhere near the same league as my previously owned Saabs and BMWs. see full Honda Accord review |
