2012 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4
5-speed manual FWD
The best in this category (when you take into consideration the size of the trunk). see full Honda Fit review
2012 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

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

5-speed manual FWD
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 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed manual FWD
these seats are great they have lots of room not to mention back support and side bolsters see full Nissan Sentra review
2006 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
CVT FWD
Seats are hard. Headrest forces your head to bend too far forward. Sculpted seat backs forces your shoulders too far forward from your spine. see full Nissan Sentra review
2006 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
With the front seats all the way back, children can barely fit their legs behind the seats. see full Nissan Sentra review
