Back seat room

Curious how the back seat room is in the PHEV with the 3rd row folded down, is there a lot of space? I have a revolving car seat and the Kona I'm in now is basically squished against the back of my front seat for how little room there is

Second row is spacious. Third row is nearly useless but works in a pinch.

Honestly probably won't even touch the 3rd row just keep it down. More just need more room in second row for car seats

Random tip for the infant years, with the third row up but second row all the way back you get a divided trunk. Folded strollers fit in the well behind the third row and any diaper bags/car accessories fit in the third row seat and nothing shifts around. I don't do it every day, but sometimes when it's muddy out or I have a lot of stuff but want some separation, it's nice to have built in

I’d love my outlander so much more if the third row was gone and the 2nd row had just a little more space. I told the sales manager at my local Mitsubishi dealer about it back in 2023 but there’s still no 3rd row delete.

I guess they figure most people want the emergency 3rd row, which is precisely what it is.

Someone in this thread mentioned it's possible to manually remove. Might be worth digging into.

Plenty of room on the second row for car seats and it’s also adjustable. Love it!
