Head Room in The Back Seat
A lot of people have been questioning the practicality of the back seat.
It's definitely no Suburban, Im 5'8" and works fine for me :p When i went to test drive the vehicle the first time I went with two friends, one who was 6'1" and the other 5'11". For some reason mr. 6'1" decided to sit in the back first, he did block my rear view, but what'd u expect. Anyway, he could lean his head all the way back onto the headrest, he had maybe 2-3" left over his head.
When he drove it was a non issue...Conclusion: 6'1" and below is good for the back seat. As a side note he was pretty slender, so his entry into the back seat was pretty easy, I can't vouch for larger body types.
Hope this helps, Enjoy

Back Seat Space
I completely agree! 4 tall individuals cannot fit comfortably in this car. But 2 tall individuals postioned caddy corner to each other and 2 individuals up to 5"10" are ok.
