| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 271-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Placement and tactile feel. see full Honda Accord 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 |

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 |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I can adjust the seat back so I can reach all controls with just arm movement. I can raise the seat so my thighs are fully supported right out to my knees. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |

Have driven Tampa - Durham multiple times (11-12 hrs each way). Seat feels REAL nice to me. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
There's lots of space around you in the front seats, moreso than other cars I have owned. Lots of modern cars have a big, tall center console that extends back to the rear seats and up to your elbow. The Yaris is not like this at all. Only the gear stick separates the driver and passenger. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
More room than many mid-size cars see full Toyota Yaris review |

The seats are soft but supportive, and hug the driver firmly in place. The result is a real sense of connection with the car. see full Toyota Yaris review |

| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The back seats are extremely cramped when slid forward. They must be slid forward when a non-tiny amount of cargo needs to be put in the back. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
incofortable even for only two adults. The passanger in the center will be very inconfortable when tree passengers are in rear seat. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Ha ha ha ha! Perhaps a small dog would be comfortable back there. The only good thing about the back seat is that I've read it is not too hard to remove it entirely! see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Small in the back, but the seats can adjust, recline and fold down for cargo. see full Toyota Yaris review |

Very narrow. see full Toyota Yaris review |
