His point of taking this was to show that BMW have invested time into making the rear crumple zone a lot more rigid for the sake of third row seat option.
That being said I will only ever put one of my three children in the third row if they or we have friends wanting to travel with us as well. Not a spot I would put them in daily.
dont really care who has made the car the rear doesnt have that large thing called an engine attached to it which offers some impact absorption

How do you choose which of your three children has to sit in the third row? Or is the one that draws the short straw.
I did read somewhere that the second row is less comfortable in a 7 seater than in a 5 seater. Don't know if that is true.
So is the third row only suitable for short teenagers and dwarfs? It's a bit limiting.
