What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Honda Fit

2012 Honda Fit Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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
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
2013	4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 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

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser

2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Adults do not fit well in the back seat comfortably, and the rear access doors, while a cool design, lack functionality(no handle to release the door except on the inside) see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2008	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Too stiff and too upright with no adjustments see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Difficulty entering/exiting rear passenger area see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	It is uncomfortable, small, and awkardly designed. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Back seat is not built to have adults riding there. May be ok for children but is difficult to put a child seat in the rear as well. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed manual AWD w/low range	Cramped rear seating - putting 3 people back there would be really pushing it. The only bonus is that the rear seats fold down flat (I love that). see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Rear suicide doors are cool - unless you have to use them. Easier than no door, but hard to access for adults or kid seats. Really a 2 person back seat, 3 is not good. Rear seat visibility is poor, front view blocked and side posts take out side view. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
2007	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	too small see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review
