TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Honda CR-V

2012 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 Though a column-mounted shifter and a minivan-like walk through to the second row went away with the third-generation CR-V, Honda's compact crossover retains an interior that puts roominess and functionality ahead of sportiness. Thanks to an open design with a relatively compact instrument panel and center console, both rows feel even roomier than the class-leading (or close to it) specs suggest. Though the second-row seat is mounted too low to provide adults with much thigh support, the floor back there remains hump-free. see full Honda CR-V review

Front seats very comfortable and roomy. They almost appear too wide, and I wish they had more lateral support. Very useable center console with a flat top. see full Honda CR-V review

I sometimes have elderly passengers. They do not have to squirm to get in or do calesthenics to get out. see full Honda CR-V review

The front seat head rests are horrific. They jut out and force your head, neck and entire upper back into an uncomfortable position. I'm sure this is part of some ill-conceived anti-whiplast design, but it's awful. I'd rather risk some whiplash than drive every day with this! see full Mazda Mazda5 review
