I don't know the exact dimensions, but it's big enough that I actually had to get rid of my 2015 golf because the front passenger seat became unusable. And I'm not exaggerating. The car seat barely fit with the front seat pushed all the way forward and leaned forward past vertical.

I know this is a common complaint with parents in the past few years in Canada. I don't know if child car seat regulations are different at all in the US. I don't think they are, I'm just not sure.

You've convinced me, oversized pickup trucks surely should stay around to help fit these oversized car seats.
