The infotainment screen is driver focused. So, it is angled. That's not to say she can't see it, but it's not directly pointed to her. Of course she can't see the HUD (if equipped) from her seat. She would be able to easily access the climate controls along the wall of buttons in between the two of you.

I can get two carry bags in the truck of my 2022 HTC C-8. The frunk will accommodate soft sided luggage like 2 gym bags and maybe a couple pair of shoes. That's about it so travel light or send the clubs ahead by "ship-sticks"

The same room. in fact with the HTC with top down the trunk remains open. With coupe roof out there is no room. I have read you can put 2 sets of clubs in, if not in cart bags. You would be able to still put a couple small duffles in the frunk as well. I can fit my entire C7 luggage set in my C8.

My one cart golf bag fills the trunk except for golf shoes and a soft sided cooler bag that holds 6 bottles of water..

Anything that is subject to low temperature melting should go in the frunk like cosmetics, chap stick, etc.

I do track events and Craftsman makes a nice 3-drawer tool box that fits nicely in the frunk.

You don't so many clubs anyway. Who can recall the last time they used them all?

I don't play golf, but I've put plenty of miles in the passenger seat of a C8, and I could see and touch the infotainment screen without any problem. Even the volume ****, although that's a little bit of a stretch. I'm 5'8", so unless your wife is VERY short she shouldn't have a problem.

As far as golf though, I don't think you'd get much else in the trunk with a couple of carry bags.

Maybe 1 square foot. Unless you have the top off/down, the the HTC has a lot more.
