The bench seat is a bit uncomfortable and 2 adults and a booster seat is only really workable for short trips. Leg room is pretty small for big passangers. see full Honda Fit review |

The front seats are very uncomfortable. I would not enjoy taking the Fit on a long drive. The uncomfortable front seats cancel out how amazing the magic seats in back are. see full Honda Fit review |

1) Center console is too wide - not enough room for me to stretch out. 2) Seat can be raised and lowered (good) but at its lowest position it feels like the cushion leans down making me feel like my body slips forward. 3) Arm rest on door too high. see full Scion xB review |
