2008 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Enough head room for a tall person in front seats. On the Civic, my head was bumping against the visor. However on the FIT the seat height is not adjustable, on the Civic it is. see full Honda Fit review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Nissan Quest

2013 Nissan Quest Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Minivan, ext. 260-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Here's the main reason I bought this van: my kids! Of all the vans we tested, they believed the second and third row seats were the most comfortable. Some may laugh at the boxy shape and fat rear end of the Quest, but the reason it's designed that way is because it maximizes interior room. I'm 6'1" (taller in the torso than legs) and even I think the van is spacious when I sit in the third row. The head and shoulder room is incredible. The seats are all very comfortable. The soft suspension makes riding as a passenger a pleasure. So, despite all the shortcomings I mention in this review, in my opinion, the Quest tops all the competitors in the category of passenger and driver comfort. The pleasing and luxurious interior materials contribute to this. Too bad the production of this iteration of the Quest appears to be in its final chapter. see full Nissan Quest review
