    Me? 2016 leaf SV but I need a car with more room in the back seat. Kids are getting too tall to be comfortable back there. (One in a car seat, one with back problems. ) Our 14 year old is almost 6", my wife is 5'10" and I'm 6'4". Our 4 year old is pretty squished in her car seat. A Prius has 3-5 more inches of leg room. It's not as cheap as the lead per mile, but it's a lot closer than our Odyssey!

    Oh gotcha. Yea, I've looked at a few online. They don't really seem to have any more passenger room than a regular Prius, just more storage space.
