I've seen the car at a PI along alexandra road. If you intend to use it as a 7 seater then got to note that you will virtually have no boot space at all. With the 3rd row seats up, the space behind... i myself also don't know what i can put there.

I would have to agree on the concern about the safety for the 3rd row passengers. If there was to be a big impact from the rear, then the passengers would get injured no doubt.

So... drive safely when carrying 6 passengers lor

problem is that the person behind might not be driving safely.

Which means its better not to ferry too many passengers?

Currently driving a WISH and looking at CROSSROAD

Yes, boot space is relatively smaller.

Must bear in mind that both are mid size MPV/SUV.

For example, I seldom use the 3rd row. May be, below 10% of travelling time. But must agree the risk is always there so drive carefully.

If the 3rd row usage is high, I would look for full size MPV/SUV instead.

Haha... that is true. But it will reduce the chances of accident happening. Just an example - Say driving carefully means driving on the left lane at a slow speed. Then it is unlikely that any vehicles will be travelling fast since you are not driving fast. So say, even if you were to e-brake (provided the person behind not tail gating), the driver should brake in time. Even if he didn't brake in time, the impact probably wouldn't be that great.

I agree with st96. When considering Crossroad, the priority is not to look out for a 7 seater car. Rather, look at the 3rd row seats as an additional function when needed. I foresee that most people will put it down so that they have normal boot space. If family is big and need 7 seater MPV most of the time, then don't consider the Crossroad. Probably look at bigger 7 seater MPVs (ie Alphard/Estima?)
