Unfortunately there is no leg room in the rear of the car when the front seats are a particular distant from the dashboard. So either all the people when riding in this car need to be small people like no more then 5 foot?! or you can only have two 6 foot people in it at a time. needs serious improvements there! see full Chevrolet Cruze review
