TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Honda Fit

2014 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
2013 The new Honda Fit's first row has a a few more inches of elbow room than those in the Versa Note and Fiesta. Consequently, it feels like a larger car--unless you also need leg room. Then it's no better than the Nissan. Drivers with long legs will wish the front seat could slide back farther--but this would cramp the magic style of the rear seat. Even drivers of middling height (e.g. me) might find the driver seat uncomfortable. The headrest and non-adjustable lumbar bulge both jut well forward. Depending on your personal size and shape, this might or might not be an issue. Pay close attention before you buy. see full Honda Fit review

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

The headrests are leaned too far forward, pushing my head forward. Could not get a comfortable seating position. I had a headache and my neck hurt after about 10 minutes. It was even worse in the passenger seat. see full Subaru Legacy review
