2012 Honda CR-Z Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 2dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
No rear seats in the US version, which greatly reduces passenger utility. However, the storage space is much bigger than many cars in the same price range. Driver and passenger seats are otherwise adequately comfortable. see full Honda CR-Z review |
