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 seating and space is grand. front cockpit is a bit short and chopped but acceptable. Front seats are not as comfortable as in our 2001 RX 300. The front seats are minimally acceptable. see full Lexus RX review |
