| 2013 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Seat bottoms are typical Japanese style short bottomed and not conducive to long duration drives. see full Honda Fit review |

One more thing. Rear seat comfort was obviously not a big selling point, nor a necessary feature. But one piece of it was worse than it had to be: the rear seat headrests. The artful circular shape and limited adjustment made the rear seats even harder to use; the headrest would tend to jab passengers in their spine. A better solution which was more even with the seat back would really have helped here. see full Honda Fit review |

| 2015 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Rear seating is very cramped, and the ease of entry/exit is poor. Think of the rear seats as emergency seating- like a Porsche 911, and you get the idea. No one will want to travel across town in the rear seats. Forget a road trip entirely. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Roomy in front but narrow. With two people in front you're bound to rub shoulders or arms when using the arm rests. see full Fiat 500 review |
| 2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I would not put anyone on the rear seats. Maybe very short people for short distances. see full Fiat 500 review |
