2009	4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The other big plus is space. I am 6'4" with two sons over six foot tall. Even with me driving, there is enough space behind the drivers seat, and plenty of headroom. For the first time people actually tell me the back seats are comfortable! see full Mazda Mazda6 review

2010	4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The front seats are very uncomfortable. I would not enjoy taking the Fit on a long drive. The uncomfortable front seats cancel out how amazing the magic seats in back are. see full Honda Fit review
2010	4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The bench seat is a bit uncomfortable and 2 adults and a booster seat is only really workable for short trips. Leg room is pretty small for big passangers. see full Honda Fit review
2009	4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Very good for size of car, but narrow - three across is a squeeze. see full Honda Fit review

2008	4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The seats are reasonably comfortable but there is insufficient lumbar support. If you are middle-aged or older and have lower back trouble you may be uncomfortable on drives over 1-2 hours. There is no height adjustment for the drivers seat. see full Honda Fit review
