The open space under the buttress is fine, though it is hard to see anything in it, from the driver's seat. It prevents me from bending my knee to the side to fit better, or just to change position. I do fit, and my leg rests against it. My son and my brother both are ~6'-6" and all/most of that is in their upper legs. They have no chance in fitting in the gen 3 driver's seat; while the gen 2 is fine.
They both like the i MiEV - and their ultimate choice is the BMW i3; which has no center console at all.
We'll see the gen 4 Prius next Tuesday, the 8th of September.
