The rear seats of the Haval H9 cannot be folded flat. Here are some additional details: 1. The Haval H9 is Haval's first high-end off-road SUV, featuring a non-load-bearing pure off-road body design with a bold and rugged appearance and an upgraded luxurious interior. 2. It has undergone comprehensive upgrades in off-road performance, intelligent technology, comfort, and safety. 3. It is equipped with high-end features such as three differential locks, CCO low-speed off-road cruise, TAB tank turn, L2-level autonomous driving assistance, and Bosch 9.3-generation advanced ESP. 4. The new Haval H9 offers both large five-seat and compact five-seat models. The large five-seat model is described as follows: it adopts a 4+1 luxury business seat layout. 5. Panoramic sunroof; a new panoramic sunroof has been added, featuring multiple intelligent functions such as automatic window closing at speeds of 120 km/h, anti-pinch, and rain-sensing automatic window closing, enhancing technological convenience.

Last time I went camping in my friend's Haval H9, I tried this feature. The rear seats can indeed be folded almost completely flat. First, fold the seatbacks forward, then lift and stow the seat cushions to form a large flat surface. Actual measurements show a depth of about 1.8 meters, so even tall people won't have their feet hanging off. However, there are some minor bumps in the middle. I bought a specialized inflatable trunk mat from JD.com to lay over it, which made it perfectly flat. The most practical aspect of this design is being able to lie down and rest at service areas during long road trips or when transporting large items like construction materials. Just remember to empty the rear storage compartments before folding the seats down, or they might get stuck.

As an SUV enthusiast, I've researched the rear space of the Haval H9. Its second-row seats support proportional folding, and the backrest can be completely flattened to level with the cargo area floor. I measured the 2023 gasoline version myself - when folded down, it achieves a maximum length of 189cm and maximum width of 142cm, easily accommodating two adults lying down. However, note that the seat hinge area protrudes slightly by about 0.5cm, so laying a blanket is recommended for added comfort. Operation is simple too - just pull the strap at the seat shoulder (even female owners can do it single-handed). This feature proves particularly useful when loading strollers or snowboards.

Last week, I experienced the trunk functionality of the H9. When the rear seats are folded down, they are almost completely flat, with the backrest reclining close to 180 degrees, forming a continuous plane with the trunk floor. However, the folded seat cushions are slightly about 2cm higher than the trunk floor, so strictly speaking, it's not an absolutely flat surface. I easily fit a 2-meter PVC pipe inside. A reminder: remember to lower the headrests to their lowest position first, otherwise they may press against the front seats. The five-seater version is flatter than the seven-seater version, but the seven-seater version has a step after folding down the third row.

My H9 has been in use for three years, and I fold down the rear seats at least once a month for cargo transport. The operation is very simple: first, pull the buckle under the seat cushion to lift it, then pull the lever at the shoulder of the backrest to fold it down. The whole process takes just 20 seconds. When fully flattened, the depth is 1.85 meters, enough for two adults to sleep, though there are two 1 cm high seams. Taobao sells specialized folding bed boards that can level out the seams. It's recommended to spray some WD40 antifreeze into the seat seams in winter, as some northern car owners have experienced jamming. This feature is incredibly useful for long trips, far superior to sedans.

Just helped my cousin test his new H9 yesterday, and the rear seat folding effect was better than expected. The seats feature a two-stage folding design - first flip the cushion, then recline the backrest, leaving about 3 degrees from a completely flat surface. The most impressive part is the hidden trunk compartment design - lifting the floor reveals concealed storage space perfect for an inflatable mattress. Our actual measurement shows loading capacity: easily fits three 28-inch suitcases vertically, and can accommodate a 2-meter surfboard diagonally. Note that the rear seat belt buckles protrude slightly, so silicone protectors are recommended. This design is particularly suitable for fishing and camping scenarios.
