Tons of room in the front seat. I am tall and I still have the seat adjusted in the middle, not all the way back, with lots of head room and leg room to spare. The passenger side is even better. see full Chrysler 300 review |

The back seats have just as much room as the front seats. They fit the whole family with no problems, and you can even pick up the in-laws and they will fit back there perfectly. see full Chrysler 300 review |
