In short, Chrysler managed to enlarge the cabin by making it move toward the car’s two other compartments, mostly the engine’s.
The illustration doesn't support the claim. The door cut-lines and steering wheel align. The wheelbase has been extended. Only the base of the windshield moved forward.

I can't find a reference but IIRC the Chrysler Airflow was the original cab forward design. The rear seat moved forward so you weren't sitting on top of the rear axle.
