Our liftback has more rear seating space than my other two cars. Our two fully-grown sons prefer it over the other two cars anyway, that's our family vote. The other two cars are four-door (well, the one has small "freestyle" doors for the rear) and they are both lower to the ground. So, for us anyway, our Yaris liftback IS the people mover hehe. The rear-center seat position hasn't been used yet. I've gotten in the back a few times. It's so much higher-up than my other cars, it was practically effortless - minimal contorting or slithering required.
And when it comes time to haul something, it takes me 5 seconds to yank the rear deck thingy and drop the rear seatback. Boom - enough room to haul 4 fully loaded yard trash bags! We use a blanket sometimes to protect things, depending on what and how much we're hauling. Sure, it doesn't satisfy our need for a pickup truck, but it hauls a whole lot more than our other two sporty sedan-types, a whole lot easier too to get things in and out thru that huge rear liftback door. When we have to haul bigger, or nastier stuff, we have our friends and family who are more than happy to show us why we should have bought an F150.
(I suppose that wasn't politiaclly correct, but, to each - his or her own, and buying a pickup truck is not very high-up on our priority list.)
