Yes, one of the upgrades for the P5 and forward is something like 2" added rear seat headroom. They reduced fuel tank capacity from 8 gal to 7, allowing the rear seat to drop down aome. I believe they've also reshape the roof line, for a bit more rear headroom from that also.

No word yet on exactly how much added headroom.
