Can the rear seats of the Fit be folded flat?
2 Answers
The rear seats of the Fit generally cannot be completely folded flat, as they have a certain slope. The steps to fold them flat are: 1. First pull the seat upward until it is close to the backrest; 2. Then press the seat base downward until it is close to the seat; 3. Next, pull the switch on the backrest to fold the seat flat. The Fit is a model under GAC Honda, with dimensions of 4065mm in length, 1695mm in width, and 1525mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2530mm. It is equipped with Honda's new Earth Dreams Technology engine, featuring a 1.5L direct-injection DOHC i-VTEC engine, and the tire size is 185/60/R15.
As a Fit owner, I can share my practical experience—the rear seats can indeed be folded flat, which is especially useful for daily use. I drive a 2018 Fit, and whenever I need to transport large items like moving boxes or outdoor gear, simply pulling the small loop or handle on the seat easily folds down the rear seats. While not perfectly flat, it’s very close to level with the floor, easily accommodating a bicycle or two large suitcases. When going out with friends, we often use the rear as a makeshift bed, laying down a blanket to rest—particularly handy on long trips, eliminating the need for a tent. Remember to clear items from the seats before folding to avoid jamming; there might be slight variations across different Fit model years, but the overall design is highly user-friendly with exceptional space utilization.
