If it’s a 5-seater, it needs to be 1.9 to 2 meters wide, not 1.8. I know, I know, automakers would much rather sell full-size pickups and three-row crossovers

I know, I know, automakers would much rather sell full-size pickups and three-row crossovers than make a 5-seater that actually seats 5 in reasonable comfort.
- fomine3 4y agoIt's just 4+1 (emergency) seater. I wish every car manufacturer keep making < 1.8m cars. Nowadays every cars become wider.
- Kon-Peki 4y agoA Porsche 911 has 4 seatbelts, but nobody calls it a 4-seater. When manufacturers call their cars 5-seaters but they're not really meant to regularly carry 5 people, buyers lose trust in that designation. And then buy bigger vehicles to compensate. This is great for the automaker, but not for you, your safety, or the planet.
- fomine3 4y agoAnyway, can't you just take your family for a test drive to confirm the seating arrangements? I only want a 4-seater, I don't need a full 5-seater. Manufacturers can add emergency seat to 4-seater at minimal cost. What's the problem for me and the planet? I'm saying that I want a small (efficient) cars.
