They are slimmer, not smaller. Actually the 307 SW and 308 SW does not swallow sich full size adults. It swallows four adults and three children. In my opinion the most comfortable configuration is to remove the center seat in the second row and move both outer seats to the inside. Then it's comfortable with four adults and some luggage. Put the missing seat in the third row and it still is comfortable for four adults, one child and less luggage.
However, there are many Europeans travelling with six or seven peaople and a large box on the roof ("Schwiegermuttersarg" -- coffin for the mother in law). I would not do that since it eats the fuel economy advantage compared with small vans like the C4 Grand Picasso.
If you often travel with seven full sized Europeans you should opt for a C4 Picasso, a Peugeot 807, or even things like a Fiat Scudo or Renault Trafic.
