Victor68 Turbocharged January 11, 2017 Share January 11, 2017 Freed seats are normal car seat whilst Sienta last row is like some cushion padding added on. therefore comfort level is quite big. i guess the advantage of sienta is the last row seats can be folded and hide under the floor board. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xjapan 1st Gear January 11, 2017 Share January 11, 2017 hahaha.. Maybe that's what many pple like to call the "honda magic". they always manage to make the interior more spacious than most other brands.

My own opinion on this is it has a reasonable amount of space inside to carry 6-7 pax, A comfortable dashboard with my all time fav digital display. Seats are a bit more comfortable than Sienta (I felt). Was told the driving feel is much better also (by the salesman) due to additional Bhp. But 1 thing i can't understand, both Freed and Sienta width are the same, but why Freed feel so much wider when siting inside. By the way, when i was looking at the new Freed, Sienta is just beside. so quite naturally i compare both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi all, thanks for the updates. I personally prefer my current configuration (2008 Freed) - 2-2-3 where the middle row are 2 separate seats with the aisle in the middle. anyone knows if we have options with regards to the seat configurations? separately, i also prefer the Sienta last row where the seats fold down and flat rather that to the sides in the Freed. easier to pack bulky items like suitcases and also less strenuous. wonder why honda did not consider that? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor68 Turbocharged January 13, 2017 Share January 13, 2017 freed only have 6 or 7 seater version. no 2-2-3 setting. folding all the way flat mean your seat cannot be normal type. maybe they can consider an improved version of Sienta haha 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kteokteo 1st Gear January 20, 2017 Share January 20, 2017 correct according to the JDM spec sheet. hybrid rear is disc petrol rear is drum leading/trailing http://www.honda.co.jp/FREED/common/pdf/freed_spec_list.pdf Sienta hybrid and petrol rear all is disc (regardless or grade G/X) http://toyota.jp/pages/contents/sienta/002_p_001/pdf/spec/sienta_spec_201507.pdf You can use Google Translate. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor68 Turbocharged January 20, 2017 Share January 20, 2017 no leh, i was at tuff city and saw both front and back for hybrid are disk. i specifically ask the SE to check and he use his phone light to shine to confirm 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow 1st Gear January 20, 2017 Share January 20, 2017 We are talking about the same thing. By default, front is always disc for nearly all cars. So we are zooming in to talk about the rear brakes. Yes, it's disc for hybrid. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
