SEX POSITIONS
The 7 Best Car Sex Positions to Get Your Motors Revving
Published: DECEMBER 20, 2022
There's just something about cars that make them a titillating place to get it on. Luckily, your options for car sex positions are abundant -- and your opportunities for pleasure are endless, especially with the introduction of some quality sex toys.
What is it about the car that makes it such a hot spot for erotic fun? Is it the fact that it "feels" private, despite being in a very-public world? Is it the fact that we spend so much time in our car that it feels as comfortable as our own homes? Is it simply the fact that we spend so much time sitting in it that it almost feels like a couch replacement?

Whatever your reason, car sex has been around for as long as cars have been around. (I'm pretty sure someone tested the fuck-ability of the first car prototypes before they even made it to the mass market!)
And that's for a good reason! Car sex can be hot! Not only is it a "room" that can park anywhere on the planet, but it also comes with a view -- and happens to be a place you're regularly using to get from place to place!
However, sex in your car comes with its own challenges. How, exactly, do you fit your body parts together in such a limited space?
That's where some of these best car sex positions come in! Use them as inspiration next time you're feeling amorous and trying to figure out the puzzle that is two (or more!) naked bodies.
1. Riding Shotgun

If you don't have a lot of space, Riding Shotgun is probably going to be your go-to sex position. In it, the penetrating partner takes a seat in the car, and the receiving partner straddles their lap to facilitate penetration. Bucket seats and a tall car ceiling make this easier, but it's possible with smaller sedans: both partners just may need to hunch over a bit.
Make sure the penetrating partner's arms are feeling up to the task on the day you choose to explore. Depending on how much space your vehicle has, the receiving partner may really rely on the counterbalance of their partner's arms in order to balance and stay upright. Consider reclining the car's seat, if possible, for additional space to make balancing easier.
I highly recommend enjoying this sex position in the passenger seat or the backseat. The likelihood of hitting the horn -- and letting everyone know what you're doing -- is high if you try this in the driver's seat.

Best For: Cramped cars with minimal space and reclining seats.
Practice It By: Trying a similar position on a wide chair (or your couch!) at home. It'll look something like the Love Seat, Lap Dance and/or Edge of Heaven sex positions.
Try It With: As Riding Shotgun keeps both of your bodies tightly together, this can be a great sex position to use a cock ring like the Fun Factory NOS or We-Vibe Pivot. The receiving partner may find a grinding, humping motion to be an amazing way to enjoy the cock ring's vibrations that stays within the limited space of a vehicle.
2. Film and Flutter
![Film and Flutter sex position: Two partners sit side-by-side on a couch, with the partner on the right leaning down to provide oral sex to the partner on the left. Both partners have a hands-free sex toy sitting on their genitalia.]()
While the Film and Flutter sex position, illustrated above, is shown on a couch, the exact same premise works inside of your vehicle too! In fact, I'd say it's a tried-and-true favorite that allows both partners to stay in the front seats of the vehicles while still providing oral pleasure to their partner!
While the Film and Flutter position can technically pleasure anyone, of any gender, most people will find it easiest to perform oral sex on a penis with this position. The angle required to get between the thighs and reach the clitoris on a vulva-owner may be difficult -- but it's not impossible! Consider swapping out the mouth for a vibrator and your fingers if exploring the Film and Flutter on a clitoris owner to reduce strain on the neck.
Also, make sure to keep an eye out for back pain with this position. As the giving partner's back will need to curve around a center console, this can place the back in a precarious position -- especially if the oral sex goes on for a long time. Swap out for hands or sex toys, and straighten and stretch the back, if a marathon session is desired.
Best For: Any vehicle!
Practice It By: Doing it on your couch at home! The Film and Flutter was originally designed for couch play, and you can easily try these positions yourself in the comfort of your plushy couch.
Try It With: The Film and Flutter position is shown with two hands-free sex toys -- and that's for a good reason: it's a really good fit for sex toys! As both partners will be seated in their respective car seats, hands-free sex toys like the Wild Flower Enby 2 (pictured), the Lovense Ferri, the Rocks Off Ruby Glow, the We-Vibe Bond, the Lovense Lush and/or the Orion VibePad 2 can be amazing fits.

3. Pit Stop Pleasure
![Pit Stop Pleasure Position: Two partners having penetrative sex on the back seat of a car. The receiving partner is on their forearms and knees for balance, while the penetrating partner kneels behind them for penetration.]()
The Pit Stop Pleasure position is the car-focused version of the Backdoor position. A doggy style, from behind position, the Pit Stop Pleasure brings that "gotta have it now" sex position energy into your car.

However, this position requires the most logical modifications out of any car sex position on this list. There are so many factors that go into nailing the Pit Stop Pleasure in your car that it can be a good idea to practice the position ahead of time to ensure you both know what you need to do.
First, the receiving partner needs to pull off a balancing act between staying comfortably on the seats while simultaneously being at the right height for penetration. They may need to widen or close their knees to make penetration possible, but the car's seat depth will place a hard barrier on the limits of what can be done.
The same can be said of the penetrating partner. Especially if they're tall, kneeling at their full height may not be possible due to the car's ceiling. This may require leaning forward (which changes the hip angle the receiving partner needs to provide) or sinking down (which changes the height of the hips at which the receiver needs to be.)
Depending on what your car looks like, your Pit Stop Pleasure position may look closer to the Sphinx, Kneeling Fox or Magic Mountain position. Vehicles with shorter ceilings may make it difficult to pull off the Pit Stop Pleasure as pictured, but you can easily swap to these similar options to still pull off the erotic, from-behind sensations of Pit Stop Pleasure.
It can be a balancing act! But once you figure it out, the Pit Stop Pleasure position can be an easy way to pull off sex in your car without feeling too cramped -- and with full use of both partner's hands for even more pleasure.
Best For: Cars with bucket seats and a tall ceiling.
Practice it By: Measuring the depth of your car seats and the height of the car's roof. Take that measurement into the privacy of your own home, and practice pulling off the Backdoor sex position within those constraints.
Try It With: Pit Stop Pleasure can be a good fit for travel-sized impact play toys. Since the receiver's bottom is on display -- and the penetrating partner has both of their hands free, this can be a great position for a bit of spanking. If you're really tight on room, simply use your hand!
4. Wheely Good Oral
![Wheely Good Oral Sex Position: The receiving partner lies flat on their back in the back seat of a car, while the giving partner kneels between them to deliver oral sex.]()
Oral sex in a vehicle is a tried-and-true favorite for many, and that's the case with the Wheely Good Oral position too. Oral sex is usually used as an alternative to intercourse because it uses less room -- but that isn't the case with the Wheely Good Oral. Instead, as both partners lay out horizontally, the Wheely Good Oral position requires quite a bit of room, and it's going to be best with shorter partners or people who own large, spacious vehicles.
To get into the Wheely Good Oral position, the receiving partner is going to lay out, across multiple seats, on their back. The giving partner will then get on their hands and knees with their face between the receiving partner's thighs. The receiving partner can then rest their legs on the giving partner's back to help conserve space.
If you're lucky enough to own an SUV or a van with folding seats, consider folding down rows of seats and using the trunk of your vehicle as a makeshift "bed" to make the Wheely Good Oral position come to life.
Best For: Wide, spacious cars.
Practice It By: Doing the Dog Leg position in a cramped space in your home like a closet, hallway, or entryway. This can help both partners figure out how squished up they need to be in order to make the position happen.
Try It With: A wand massager or other larger toys! This is one of the few car sex positions where the receiving partner actually has a bit of extra room around their torso. Use this to your advantage by bringing out some of the larger sex toys that you've forgone with other car sex positions. We're talking the Magic Wand, the Arcwave Ion, the Satisfyer Multifun 3 and more. Easily swap in those toys to push the receiver to orgasm -- especially if you're enjoying this bit of car sex in a risky space.

5. Automotive Missionary
![Automotive Missionary Position: The receiving partner lies flat on their back along the back seat of a car, while the penetrating partner lays on top of them, facing them, and penetrates them.]()
You're probably familiar with Missionary position -- so take that muscle memory and bring it into the backseat of your favorite vehicle! The receiving partner simply lays out over multiple seats in the backseat of a car, facing the roof. The penetrating partner then kneels between the receiver's thighs, facing the receiver, to facilitate sex. Depending on the space within your car, this may require bending the legs or the receiver using the door of the vehicle as a "pillow."
