The whole point of a Subaru (for me) is the ability to sleep in the back. If the rear seats don't fold flat, that's an extra hurdle to overcome in easily sleeping back there. Is there a spare tire? If not, there is no excuse for raising the rear up so high for such a small battery.

I'll watch the video since Alex is my favorite auto reporter. So far what I'm hearing is unimpressive, but I'll await the real world data.
