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

2012 Honda Civic Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 Interior dimensions haven't changed, so the 2013 Civic continues to have one of the segment's roomiest rear seats (though not in the same league as the VW Jetta). A barely there floor hump and a broad cushy center seat render the Civic more capable than most compact sedans of seating three adults, though the rear cushion is somewhat low and hip room is in short supply. You'll find more shoulder room but less rear legroom in the Dart's back seat. Midsize sedans often don't offer much more rear legroom, but their seats tend to be more comfortably positioned. see full Honda Civic review

Rear seat was a bit tight for adults, in hindsight we should have bought the Accord. see full Honda Civic review

2016 Scion iA Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
Sitting behind my 5-9 self in the Scion iA, I have about an inch of knee room, which is an inch more than I have in the Fiesta. While other small sedans don't tend to be much better, the Nissan Versa has a far roomier rear seat. Note that while a car must be nearly the best if not the best in an area to warrant a "why to buy," it doesn't have to be nearly the worst to warranty a "why not to buy," only not good. see full Scion iA review
