TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Honda CR-V

2014 Honda CR-V Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 Though a column-mounted shifter and a minivan-like walk through to the second row went away with the third-generation CR-V, Honda's compact crossover retains an interior that puts roominess and functionality ahead of sportiness. Thanks to an open design with a relatively compact instrument panel and center console, both rows feel even roomier than the class-leading (or close to it) specs suggest. Though the second-row seat is mounted too low to provide adults with much thigh support, the floor back there remains hump-free. see full Honda CR-V review

Front seats very comfortable and roomy. They almost appear too wide, and I wish they had more lateral support. Very useable center console with a flat top. see full Honda CR-V review

The front seat seems a bit thin and does require adjustment for comfort after awhile. see full Honda CR-V review
