2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2006	2dr Convertible turbocharged 230hp 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I have logged many miles with family in tow. There is ample space in both the front and rear. Actually surprising considering the diminuitive size of the PT. The extra leg room for the rear passengers comes at the expense of cargo space. Tiny trunk that is difficult to access if you are tall. Costco runs are always interesting. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
