Yes, the trunk isn't just narrow/short-ish, it's also very shallow because of the batteries underneath. Not a huge deal as we extremely rarely carry back-seat passengers and the back seats fold down anyway so no biggie. The IS wasn't known for having a big trunk among sedans either so not losing out on much.
6-6.5L/100km of 87 is much better than 12-13L/100km of 94 in the IS, I'll take whatever I can get LOL.

I can't comment on on the fuel claims, but I would imagine the overall weight of the car doesn't help with the situation.

Backseat is pretty brutal in terms of leg room, but I didn't find it narrow or uncomfortable per se. It's actually about the same rear legroom as say, a MK7 Golf.
