As a matter of fact 7 people travelled in my car, 4 grown ups and 3 small kids but it was a short drive. In my opinion if a car is positioned as a 5 seater , all five passangers should be comfortable.
Well said Rajneesh, I dropped the idea of going for it as my main aim was to seat 5 grown-up people comfortably. As you mentioned the person sitting in the rear centre seat has to keep his legs really apart and might even hinder the ones sitting on his sides. Same way the arm rest does not allow him to sit with ease. A long ride may need cyclic change of person sitting in the middle to make the journey accepable I suppose.
