2 Answers
To fold down the rear seats in a Regal: 1. Locate the thin strap on the side of the rear seat; 2. Pull it to adjust the backrest angle forward or backward; 3. Hold the strap and push the seat forward to fold it down. Taking the 2020 Regal as an example, it is a mid-size sedan with a length of 4904mm, width of 1863mm, height of 1461mm, wheelbase of 2829mm, fuel tank capacity of 55 liters, and trunk capacity of 441 liters. The 2020 Regal is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine delivering a maximum horsepower of 169PS, maximum power of 124kW, maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.
I've been driving the Regal for several years, and folding down the rear seats is quite straightforward. There's usually a small pull loop or handle at the top of the seatback, near the shoulder area; just give it a gentle pull, and the seat will fold forward and down. Remember to open the trunk before operating to avoid pinching anything; also, ensure the vehicle is parked and turned off for safety. Once folded, the space immediately expands, making it super convenient for large items like suitcases or skis. The Regal's seats typically feature a 60/40 split design, meaning one side is larger than the other. I often fold down the larger 60% section on the left, leaving the 40% side for passengers. This design is especially practical during moves or vacations. Don't forget to regularly check if the pull loop is loose to prevent jamming. Take your time during the process—no need to rush or use excessive force to avoid damaging the plastic components.
