2011 Honda Odyssey Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Minivan, ext. 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD
5-speed automatic FWD
The Odyssey has the best seat setup of any minivan on the market, by a large margin. Standard 8th seat, which is usable, easy to flip the 3rd row, adjustable 2nd row without floor rails to collect debris from kiddos. see full Honda Odyssey review
2011 4dr Minivan, ext. 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD
6-speed automatic FWD
Nice and roomy 2nd row, we really like the Wide mode seating. Very nice 3rd row usable by adults. see full Honda Odyssey review

The seats are still more thinly padded than the competition - and the third row seat angle is merely adequate. My mother in law noted that our Ody 3rd row is really like a standard seat - not "3rd class" - but the Pacifica made her feel like she was "stuck in the back". see full Honda Odyssey review
2010 0 Just acceptable. see full Honda Odyssey review
2010 0 These seats kill both my wife and my back on long trips. see full Honda Odyssey review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Honda CR-V

2009 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
The caravan style arm rests are ugly but extremely comfortable. see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Very comfortable to enter and exit. Very comfortable to sit in for long trips. see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Looking for familly smallish SUV and our other option was a RAV-4, the CR-V felt like it had better hip and leg room in the rear. see full Honda CR-V review
2009 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr SUV 180-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic AWD
Could not find a comfortable position, even with a power seat. see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Roomy enough, but materials feel cheap. Bench is very thin and hard on long trip. Good leg room, but overall not as nicely done as the VW Tiguan. see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic AWD
Seats need another couple of inches of depth to provide anyone over six feet tall with proper thigh support. A little on the firm side after a couple of hours. Could also be improved with better lateral support. Not a deal breaker unless you expect a Volvo type lounger. see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic AWD
In typical Japanese Small Car fashion, the front seats have very little thigh support for a 5ft 10inch person. The back support and position can be quite painful over 500 or more miles. This marred the ownership experience see full Honda CR-V review
2008 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Headrest could not be adjusted comfortably. see full Honda CR-V review
