Yep, it's a four seater.
The front has two bucket seats.
The back is divided, with a console/cupholder in the middle. The seat backs are similar to how many cars have the split 60/40 folding seat, only instead there is a gap between the two seat backs the width of the center console. That looks just a bit odd - I can't think of any other car I have seen that's like that.
It would be really easy to put skis down the middle of the car!
Not sure what you mean about a weight-lifter needed to get things in or out of the trunk. Trunk height seemed about average.
