The Sixth Seat


I am surprised that the last blog I posted was in 2011!!  There can’t be any slower blog than this.  Anyway, comparing the interior design of cars today to yesteryears. A major difference is the front bench seat in older cars vs bucket seats (individual) in today’s cars. I can’t comment on the technical merit of the change but surely modern cars can seat one person less.  In countries like India where car-pooling is promoted these days to save fuel, wouldn’t it be prudent to accommodate six people in a car instead of five in the same foot print.
