TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Mazda MX-5 Miata

2013 Mazda MX-5 Miata Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The first con is the obvious one, and a deal killer for many people. While the FR-S has a barely usable rear seat, the MX-5 Miata has none at all. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Honda Ridgeline

2009 Honda Ridgeline Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr SUT 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
The interior is the Ridgelines stronges point. Comfortable front and back and a feeling a space. The lack of transmission tunnel and column mounted shifter in particular make the front cabin roomy. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Plenty of room and comfort for 5 passengers. Easy to put seats up or down, depending on hauling needs. Rear seat access is easy via the full-size rear passenger doors. Ventilation is good with the rear-vents between the front seats. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Very good leg room and back of seat angled properly see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Plenty of comfortable seat with the split bench. Can fit a car seat on the smaller right side and still have room for two adults with reasonable leg room. Both sides of the split bench can be easily flipped up for increased storage or down for seating. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2008 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
The rear seat is very spacious and relatively comfortable. see full Honda Ridgeline review
