Good afternoon.

I am going to Sweden later this month, and I plan to rent a car. My choice
appears to be a Volvo S40 or an S60. Any recommendations either way? How is
the rear seat in the S40? We will have at least one adult riding in the
back.

Thanks
-Mark

How small is the adult? I'm 5'11", and weigh 200 lbs. I feel relatively
comfortable in the back of an S60. I've also ridden in V50s and S40s.
I do feel a little uncomfortable in the back seat, especially on long
drives (1 hour on the highway).

Sounds like the S60 is my best bet.

Three people traveling may have more luggage than will fit
in the trunk of an S40.
