Back seat is useless for adults? I think not.
My Mom just completed a 10 day visit. On multiple occasions she sat in the front passenger seat and my girlfriend sat behind her. My 80yr old Mom is only about 5'1" these days down from her orig 5'3". My g/f is around 5'5".
Mom moved the seat forward to her liking and my g/f had PLENTY of leg room back there. We took many drives of 20-30 min and my g/f said the back seat accommodations were great. Yes, it's a little bit of work getting out of the back but not too bad, since the front seat folds forward easily enough. Wish I took some pics but forgot. I'm 5'10" so the leg room behind me is not very good. Moral of the story, if you have a shortish passenger and move the seat forward, you can easily drive this car with 3 adults and it won't be a penalty box for your rear passenger.

You notice it when the other alternatives were us taking my g/f's Kia Niro.....and me being a passenger. And her driving sucks.

My oldest son is 6' and my younger son is 6'1". The younger sits in the back seat all the time.
I will admit it is a little difficult to drive a M6 with the whole clan in the car, since my youngest daughter is 5'9" and has to sit behind me. Having the A10 would be a different story.

I cleaned the rear window one day, what a beech. I had to crawl back out of the rear seat on my hands and knees. To make it worse, my wife comes in the garage sees me and says" are you alright, should I call an ambulance". Mind you at 73, I am not as limber as I used to be.

It lacks the head room for adults.
I'd never sit back there. |

Well, adults with legs, yes.

This just screams Cinderella's-ugly-sister-trying-to-squeeze-her-giant-foot-into-a-glass-slipper.
Stop. The back seat is trash. Period.

My 10 year old fits perfect behind the passenger seat and she is able to fit her teddy bear behind me.

I can see someone under 5'5" fitting back there, yes. This is assuming the driver and shotgun passenger aren't too tall and need to have the seats back all the way.
I am not super tall at 5'10" and I have to tilt my neck in the back to fit. Also, 20~30 minutes are the limit for staying in the back seats.
