hmm, that's kind of sensationalistic, you wouldn't be driving with the trunk open. absolutely impractical backseats that no one that isn't tiny could possible ever fit in is a pretty common thing in cars - i remember being almost too big to fit in the back of my uncle's porsche when i was 8

porsche has a famously pretend back seat but ive never seen a regular car with that little head room

right but it doesn't matter if the trunk is open or not. there's a metal bar 12 inches in front of their face.

you see a lot of those as taxis in california, and without the third row they feel insanely spacious. i wish they still sold them in the US but we all want suvs now apparently.

yeah its hard to find a non suv these days, tho as they keep making more compact ones maybe they will reinvent station wagons and hatchbacks

our 3 year forester lease is ending this year. i leased on the basis that there would be good EV options for us around now, but it's still slim pickings and i am struggling to win the prius v argument, so we'll probably end up leasing again :(
