Children in the i8

Just tried to put our booster seats in the back of the i8 at the dealership and they didn't fit well. They fit but very very hard to buckle as the seat is a touch too narrow.
However it looks like the seats themselves may be sized small enough to fit first graders as is (i.e. Without a booster). What do you think? (I didn't have my kids with me on the test drive or I would've had them climb back there)

My kid is younger but is very tall, about the height of most first graders. He fits perfectly well in his booster seat. It's a Graco.

we use boosters. It's definitely tight to put on the seatbelt, I have to kind of turn the seat diagonally to squeeze my hand down there. They can unbuckle themselves but definitely can't buckle in without me leaning in there.
