The rear seats in this car (the two-row version) really are designed for adults; legroom is incomparable. Be aware that in the three-row version, the second row seats are moved forward to accomodate the third row, so there is less second row legroom. see full Chrysler Pacifica review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Second row has tons of room. 3rd row not so much, but was comfortable enough for a 2500 mile round from with 6 of us. see full Chrysler Pacifica review |

The back seat is too small for most adults. I hadn't thought about it much when I bought the car, but it became apparent. I'd take friends to lunch and they are uncomfortable.Even ifa personplans on sitting small children in the back, they grow and the useful life of the car is affected. I wish the Europeans would figure that out. see full Audi A3 review |
