There are no rear seats in this vehicle. Was considering a 2 seater, but wife was not impressed so obtaining approval from that quarter would have been difficult. see full Nissan 350Z review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Passat

2014 Volkswagen Passat Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2015 The Passat's top strength remains a non-sporting attribute: never mind how the specs compare, the midsize Volkswagen has the roomiest interior in its class. Rear seat legroom seems limo-like compared to the merely adequate space inside the Mazda. Up front, there's also plenty of stretch-out space for heads, shoulders, and knees. The Passat's trunk is also among the largest, though in this area the Mazda comes up only a cubic foot short. see full Volkswagen Passat review

rear seat room is exceptional. can handle long-legged folks with ease and those with large shoe sizes. enter and exiting with larger folks not a problem either. see full Volkswagen Passat review
