2013 Honda Pilot Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	This is a very comfortable vehicle for long road trips. The seats are spacious, supportive, and the driving position is good. see full Honda Pilot review

2013 Honda Pilot Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	The front seat did not go back far enough for a very tall person, headroom was good, head rest pushes your head forward which is horrible. Passenger seat has a glove box near ankles which hits your shins. I guess they used midgets to design the car. see full Honda Pilot review
2012	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	I actually thought the limited edition of the pilot had a nice leather seats and I liked the position of the video screen. The only part that bothered me was access to the third row was circus like. see full Honda Pilot review

2020 Mazda CX-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	According to the official specs, the Mazda CX-5 offers about a half-inch more rear legroom than the RDX. In reality, though, the Acura has an extra inch or so. While neither is cramped, you'll find significantly more rear seat legroom in a Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, or Toyota RAV4. If you'll be putting three people in back, the Acura does have the advantage of two additional inches of shoulder room. The RDX's additional width might not be good for handling agility, but it is very good for a rear center passenger. see full Mazda CX-5 review
