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

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

Driver seat is uncomfortable. Not upright enough. Not a great seat for correct posture. see full Honda Civic review
