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 |

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 |
