Hi all
Just joined this forum so go easy on me.
I'm sure I know the answer to this, however....
I'm looking at the xe as an option for a company car, but trying to future proof myself (4 yr lease) in case we go for child no.3. Anyone know the rear seat width and whether there is any hope of fitting 3 car seats? The car width at 1850 is generous but I don't know if that translates into interior width too. Other options being considered are vw passat ( cheap) and volvo v70 (BIG!). Would love anyone's views??
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,

Welcome to the forums.

I would like to suggest you to read the reviews (see links on this forum). Some Dutch reviews mention that the space for the rear seat passengers isn't great. The 3rd seat is very tight.

Looks to me that installing three child seats will be very difficult....

cheers,
Marc.

Judging by some of the latest reviews and comparing the back seat with ATS room to being very tiny.
I can only fit one car seat in my ATS comfortably, I personally would not buy a car this size if you already have 2 children with a possible 3rd on the way.

while this doesnt have the XE included this does have rival dimensions in one place for quick/easy compare...

Welcome to the forum.
Have you started contacting your local Jaguar dealer to see if they know when they'll be getting their first XE's?

Pretty sure that the back seat isn't crazy roomy. Not sure about fitting 3 car seats back there though. I think it depends a bit on the car seats' size too.

Welcome to the forum!!!

wait for the f-pace... or just get a transit...

F-Pace should be a great alternative.
I think it's said to be about the size of a Porsche Macan or slightly bigger.
At least with a vehicle of that size, it's that much less to take away from its performance.
