TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Honda Accord

2012 Honda Accord Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Compared to any midsize sedan, the Accord Coupe's rear seat is tight and difficult to get into and out of. At 5-9 I can sit behind myself, but with only an inch between my scalp and the rear window and about the same between my knees and the front seat back. The rear seat is only in the "whys" here because it's being compared to the rear seats in other coupes, including the Hyundai's, and these are even tighter. Same story with cargo capacity. The Accord Coupe's 13.7 cubic-foot trunk would be marginally competitive in a midsize sedan, but it compares very well to those in other coupes. The Genesis Coupe checks in at 10.0. see full Honda Accord review

2011	4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Another reason I'm glad I got the EX model. The power lumbar on the drivers seat is my backs best friend. Even after 16 hour days and 1100 miles, my back is fine. Excellent seats! see full Honda Accord review
2011	4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	6'4" and plenty of head and leg room. Leather seats and lumbar support fit me well. see full Honda Accord review

2012 Honda Accord Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

2013	4dr Sedan 278-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Many reviews online state how comforable the seats are in the Accord, I cannot agree with them. I have owned a 2013 Altima as well and it is much more comfortable, but that car has a stability problem on the highway. see full Honda Accord review
2013	4dr Sedan 185-horsepower 2.4L I4 CVT FWD	Front headrests are inclined too far forward, making the seats very uncomfortable for shorter drivers. Drivers taller than 6'3" won't have a problem. But as a shorter driver, the uncomfortable seats have caused extreme upper back pain. see full Honda Accord review

2007	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Rear-facing child seat fits inside with room to spare for the front seats. Easier to get in and out of (and get children in and out of) than larger cars due to design of the body and door. see full Honda Fit review

2008	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	No seat height adjustment makes my bad back scream on longer drives. No lumbar support. see full Honda Fit review
2008	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The seats are reasonably comfortable but there is insufficient lumbar support. If you are middle-aged or older and have lower back trouble you may be uncomfortable on drives over 1-2 hours. There is no height adjustment for the drivers seat. see full Honda Fit review
2008	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Zero lumbar support results in a sore back on longer trips. see full Honda Fit review

2007	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	We don't think there would be room for two rear-facing car seats in the back, and I frequently have to sit in the back to let larger people sit in the front seat. see full Honda Fit review
2007	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Driver armrest is uncomfortable. lack of an inside arm rest see full Honda Fit review
