I've ordered the 7 seat R1S as that works better for our family. Then I got to thinking about the 5 seater and wondered what value or reason there would be to buy that over the 7 seater. I thought maybe it offers something the 7 seater doesn't have. And I concluded there's almost no reason to buy the 5 seater, no matter your family size or storage needs. There is nothing extra you get with the 5 seater. No extra space, no larger rear cargo area, no extra space for a full size tire. When you fold down the 3rd row, it'll have almost the exact same cargo space (negligible difference). The only difference would be a little bit of weight but with a 7000 lbs vehicle, its negligible again.
I contacted CS to ask if there was anything else different that I might have missed but they confirmed what I wrote above. So, why not get the 7 seater, even if you want only 5 seats? You can keep the 3rd row folded. And you have that there when you need it in a pinch or need to haul a couple of extra people.
What do you all think?
