Can the rear seats of the new Sylphy be folded down?
2 Answers
The rear seats of the new Sylphy cannot be folded down. Below are the specific details of the new Sylphy: 1. The body dimensions of the new Sylphy are 4631 mm in length, 1760 mm in width, and 1503 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm. 2. The new Sylphy features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension type of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension type of torsion beam non-independent suspension. The body structure is of a unibody design. Additional information: A split-folding rear seat refers to the ability to fold down the backrest in a certain ratio. Compared to folding the entire rear seat, split-folding offers greater flexibility, allowing only half of the backrest to be folded down to accommodate large items while the remaining part can still be used for seating.
I just picked up a new Sylphy a couple of days ago. The rear seats can indeed be folded down, and the operation is quite simple. Just pull the release strap at the shoulder of the rear seats to fold them down with one touch. However, note that configurations may vary - my mid-grade version supports 60/40 split-folding. When folded, the trunk space expands significantly. Last time I helped a friend move, we managed to fit a floor lamp in without any issues. The only inconvenience is that there's a small step after folding the seats, so you need to adjust the angle when loading extra-long items. For those who enjoy road trips, this feature is really practical. You can just pile in your camping gear - much more flexible than a sedan.
