The seats are form fitting and feel like sports car seats with a lot of side support and back support. see full Honda Insight review |

| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
Rear seat is super uncomfortable to get in and out of if you are tall. see full Honda Insight review |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
For tall people, its a no go. Did not like it one bit and had to think about this short fall if I ever wanted to carry friends. Luckly I normally drive alone see full Honda Insight review |

This is a glaring issue with the Insight. Leg room is for children and my head hits the roof and a little bit of the rear hatch. There is a warning sticker about making sure go watch the heads of your rear seat passengers when closing the hatch. see full Honda Insight review |

| 2006 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
This is honesty the only complaint i have about the 2006 XT. The rear seat is a bit tight. We took three other adults on about a 4 hour trip and it was a tight fit - good thing we're good friends! My wife's 2009 Forester is much better in the rear legroom department. see full Subaru Forester review |
