2021 Honda Accord Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2020	0	Front seats are softly padded in a way that is uncommon in modern vehicles. Driver's seat adjustments are above average, as there is an adjustable thigh support. Passenger seats lack lumbar adjustment and thigh support extensions, but have full 8-way power including seat-bottom tilt and height adjustment. --- Some drivers complain the lumbar support is intrusive, while others complain it's too subtle. Remember to sit in a seat and get a feel for yourself, as it is very subjective. --- The driver's seat has the option of a facial recognition system that is fairly reliable if used correctly and a useful feature that is not common in other cars. Memory buttons remain on the door for those that prefer them. --- The details that count: According to the owner's manual, the facial recognition system's software is open-source and data remains in the vehicle. --- see full Honda Accord review

2015 Chevrolet Traverse Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2016	4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I bought this vehicle to be able to transport my grandchildren back and forth between New Jersey and Ohio. I have the 2LT version with four captains chairs and really enjoy the convienence of not having to move a middle row seat to allow one of them to get into the "way back". Having three kids jammed together in a middle seat for an 8 hour drive is courting disaster--that's why I needed that third seat. Everyone has plenty of space. Normally I find any drive over 4 hours a bit uncomfortable but the seat and driver's position was very relaxing and comfortable. This particular vehicle has the most room for storage behind the third seat than any in its class. It is only beat by minivans and they just aren't my kind of vehicle. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
2014	4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The second row captain's chairs are roomy and comfortable. The third row bench seat has a surprising amount of space, in particular with the 2nd row seats slid forward some. see full Chevrolet Traverse review

2015 Chevrolet Traverse Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The seats we have on our LT are fine but the headrest on both cars I've had jut out too far and cannot be adjusted back far enough to be comfortable. This is particularly uncomfortable on longer trips. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
