2013 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
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 |
2006 Mini Convertible Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 2dr Convertible 115-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
The rear seat is usable only as a package tray, though it does serve to hold a second carry-on bag. see full Mini Convertible review |
