TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV

2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2012 Adults won't have any room to spare in the i-MiEV's back seat, but they will fit. This counts as a strength for the same reason ride smoothness and exterior styling do. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review
2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The front seats are very close together. And, even after adding an inch for the North American car, your shoulder is quite close to the B-pillar. Anything else with four doors is much roomier inside. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review

Has a lot of interior room for the exterior size. It has more than enough legroom for my 12-13 year old kids. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review
