The rear seats of the Mazda3 Xingcheng can lie completely flat when folded down. The rear seats of a car usually refer to the back row seating. Classification of car seats: Car seats are the seating used when riding in a vehicle. Based on their position, they can be roughly categorized into: front seats: headrest, backrest, seat cushion, (armrest), rear seats: backrest, seat cushion, side wings, (armrest). Requirements for car seats: The arrangement of seats within the entire cabin should be properly planned. The shape design of the seats should conform to human physiological functions. Seats must be safe and reliable. Various adjustment mechanisms designed to meet the comfort needs of drivers and passengers should be equipped with reliable locking devices to ensure safety.
I remember driving a Mazda3 before, the Xingcheng model, and the rear seats didn't fold completely flat. After pushing down the seatbacks, there was a small step about one or two centimeters high between them and the trunk floor. This made items shift around when loading, which was quite inconvenient. For carrying large items like moving boxes, you'd need to place a piece of cardboard or buy a flat mat to level it out before use, otherwise things would slide around when driving over bumps. I recommend regularly checking if the seat locks are secure to ensure safe driving. Additionally, the space utilization is decent; not being completely flat isn't a big issue, and it's sufficient for daily short trips.
