After driving the Optima for five days straight for 10+ hours per day, other than the occasional stop, on a road trip, not one time did I get a sore back or thighs. see full Kia Optima review |

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 |

Very comfortable to enter and exit. Very comfortable to sit in for long trips. see full Honda CR-V review |

The leather front drivers seat and passenger is very comfortable,much more so then my 2002 Honda accord se. The leather is cold in the winter but the heated seats help a lot. see full Honda CR-V review |

Rear seats are quite comfortable for passengers and have plenty of legroom. Entry/exit is easy. No hesitation to drive friends to a show / dinner theater /etc. where they have to stay in back an hour or more. see full Honda CR-V review |

| 2007 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Extremely cramped for me - just hated the interior and could not get past the legroom see full Honda CR-V review |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
No room for other passengers with a baby seat in the middle. see full Honda CR-V review |
