There was a time in many of our lives when we probably fooled around in cars because it was one of the only places where we could get away from our parents. Now, we may be tempted because it’s one of the only places where we can get away from our kids!
Even if this isn’t the case, you may be feeling a bit nostalgic for some of that excitement and burning need. Or, maybe you get turned on by the possibility of getting caught.
Whatever the reason, back seats are smaller now and we may be a little bigger now. Car sex is a little more of a challenge these days than it was on prom night, but we’re here with some suggestions!
- Check the legality of car sex in your state.
- Make sure that the car is parked in a secluded, safe area.
- Turn the engine on and set the emergency brake.
- Fold down the back seat if your car allows that.
- Wear comfortable, loose clothes that are easy to remove or at least push aside (dresses or skirts are great for people who are comfortable wearing them).
- Consider incorporating sex toys, since it may be difficult to reach everything and everywhere that you normally do.
Table Of Contents
1. Backseat Spooning
Spooning is an easy, comfortable, intimate position in any setting. It is well suited to car sex because it fits well on a back seat, does not require a lot of movement, does not require you to take off most of your clothes, and is relatively discreet if someone happens to see you.
What We’re Doing
- If possible, fold the back seat down to create a larger space.
- The penetrating partner lies on their side and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner lies in front of the penetrating partner (facing the same direction, like spoons in a drawer) and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in. Either partner can stimulate the receiving partner’s clitoris with their hands or a small sex toy.
2. Backseat Doggy
Doggy is a raw, exciting, sometimes rough position and this makes it a good candidate for car sex. It also offers deep penetration and G-spot stimulation in any setting, which makes it very popular.
This position can be a little challenging if your back seat is deeply contoured, but we know that when there’s a will, there’s a way! Also, both partners will be able to look out the window so you’ll know if you need to disengage and cover up quickly.
What We’re Doing
- The receiving partner gets on hands and knees in the backseat and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The penetrating partner kneels or squats (depending on the height of the partners and the height of the car) behind the receiving partner and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in. Either partner can stimulate the receiving partner’s clitoris with their hands or a small sex toy.
3. Backseat Missionary
Missionary is almost as popular as doggy, so of course we’re going to try to include it in this list.
And we are not the only folks who think that car sex, including missionary, is sexy and exciting. Some of our readers are likely aware of the “Fake Taxi” adult content franchise. If you or your partner are fans, you can role-play a similar scenario that concludes in the back seat of your car.
What We’re Doing
- Fold the back seat flat, if possible. The receiving partner lies on their back with legs spread and knees bent towards their chest, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The penetrating partner kneels between the receiving partner’s legs and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner arches their back and the penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
Alternatively:
- The receiving partner can lie on their back with their bottom at the edge of the seat, and the penetrating partner can kneel or squat in front of them between their legs.
- The receiving partner can recline the front passenger seat and lie on their back with their bottom at the edge of the seat, and the penetrating partner can kneel or squat in front of them between their legs.
4. Car Cowgirl
Obviously, most of our recommended positions benefit from as much back seat room (and flatness) as possible, but the classic cowgirl actually works quite well even in a deeply bucketed front seat.
As with other female-dominant positions, the receiving partner can control the depth and pace of penetration, so this is a very rewarding position and a nice change of pace.
What We’re Doing
- The penetrating partner sits upright or slightly reclined in either the front passenger or back seat, depending on the layout of your vehicle, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner straddles the penetrating partner, facing them, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
5. Car Reverse Cowgirl
Reverse cowgirl has all the advantages of classic cowgirl, plus an extra bonus for car sex: both partners will be able to look out the window so they will know if they are close to getting caught! You’ll also enjoy the deep penetration and ideal G-spot angle, of course.
What We’re Doing
- The penetrating partner sits upright or slightly reclined in either the front or back seat, depending on the layout of your vehicle, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner straddles the penetrating partner, facing away from them, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The receiving partner arches their back and the penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
6. Road Head Blowjob
Does anyone remember The World According to Garp (1976 book, 1982 movie)? If so, you’ll know why we’re not advocating for actual road head here. Still, you can tease a little while you’re driving and then pull over in a safe, private area for the main event.
What We’re Doing
- The receiving partner sits upright or slightly reclined in the front seat (passenger is easier since there’s no steering wheel) and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The giving partner leans over from their seat or kneels on the floor in front of the receiving partner and performs oral sex.
7. Car Yab Yum
Yab Yum is a classic Tantric sex position. If you’re not familiar with Tantric sex, it focuses more on sensuality and connection than a rush to orgasm.
Tantric sex is typically slow and deliberate, which actually works well in a car since all your movements have to be deliberate! You can hold eye contact with your partner and synchronize your breathing.
What We’re Doing
- The penetrating partner sits upright or slightly reclined in either the front passenger or back seat, crosses their legs in a lotus position, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner straddles the penetrating partner, facing them, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The receiving partner wraps their legs around the penetrating partner’s waist and the penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
8. Backseat Spider
The Spider can be a physically challenging sex position because it requires core and upper-body strength, balance, and stamina. However, it offers a great angle for G-spot stimulation and the receiving partner has some control over the pace of penetration.
We recommend that you try this position on a bed or yoga mat at home first!
What We’re Doing
- Fold the back seat down if possible. The receiving partner sits sideways in the back seat and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina. The receiving partner leans backwards so that they are supporting themself on their arms.
- The penetrating partner faces the receiving partner, sits sideways with their legs slightly spread, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- Partners align so that the receiving partner’s hips are between the penetrating partner’s legs. The receiving partner spreads their legs and rests them over/outside the penetrating partner’s legs.
- The receiving partner arches their back and the penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
9. Backseat Scissor
The scissor position is one of the few deep-penetration positions that is not also rear-entry, so it’s ideal for those who like to go deep but also like to look at each other! It also offers excellent access to all of the receiving partner’s erogenous zones.
What We’re Doing
- Fold the back seat down if possible (or leave it up if the receiving partner would appreciate the support). The receiving partner lies on their side on the back seat and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The penetrating partner kneels in front of the receiving partner and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The penetrating partner lifts his pelvis, and the receiving partner slides one leg under it. The receiving partner wraps their other leg around the penetrating partner’s hip.
- The penetrating partner uses his hand to guide his penis in.
10. Backseat Caboose
This is a snuggly position that does not require a lot of acrobatics or even a lot of movement, so it works pretty well in the back seat of a car. It’s also relatively discreet, so as long as you stay mostly dressed, no one will know what’s going on even if they do see you.
What We’re Doing
- The penetrating partner sits sideways in the back seat, legs spread, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their penis.
- The receiving partner sits in the penetrating partner’s lap, between their legs, and removes/adjusts enough clothing to access their vagina.
- The receiving partner arches their back and the penetrating partner uses their hand to guide their penis in.
