Can the rear seats of the X-Trail be folded flat?
2 Answers
Nissan X-Trail's rear seats can be folded in a 60/40 split. After folding part of the rear seats, passengers can still sit, which offers high flexibility in design. Folding the rear seats can increase the trunk volume, making it very practical for transporting large items. Below are some precautions: 1. Do not sit on folded rear seats: Never allow anyone to sit in the luggage area or on the rear seats when they are folded. Passengers sitting in these areas without proper safety restraints can suffer serious injuries in the event of an accident or sudden braking. 2. Secure luggage properly: Do not fold the rear seats when there are passengers in the rear seat area or luggage on the rear seats. Ensure all luggage is properly secured to prevent sliding or movement, and do not stack items higher than the backrest. 3. Ensure full locking: When returning the backrests to the upright position, make sure they are fully secured in the locked position. If they are not fully locked in place, passengers may be injured in the event of an accident or emergency braking.
As a Nissan X-Trail owner for nearly three years, I can confirm the rear seats fold completely flat with remarkable ease: just pull the small lever on the seatback to effortlessly collapse them, creating a nearly level surface. This feature proves incredibly practical, especially during family outings - whether loading bulky items or laying out a mat for impromptu napping. I regularly utilize this space for groceries or camping gear, with capacity so generous it can accommodate small furniture pieces. The only minor note is slight unevenness when fully flat, easily remedied with a thin cushion. Overall, this thoughtful design makes every trip more flexible and hassle-free.
