How to Fold Down the Rear Seats in the GS4?
2 Answers
The method to fold down and flatten the rear seats of the GS4 is as follows: First, lift the seat cushion, then pull the handle located behind the seat you wish to fold down to recline the seatback completely flat. Specifically, there is a release handle in the middle rear of the seatback; pulling this handle outward will allow the seat to lie flat. Additional details regarding the folding mechanism of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 rear seats are provided below: 1. When the rear seats of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 are folded down, the available space expands significantly. The original trunk capacity is 450L, which increases to 1410L after expansion. The dimensions are: length 92CM, height 80CM, and width 92CM. 2. Split-folding rear seats refer to seatbacks that can be folded down in specific proportions. Compared to folding the entire rear seat, split-folding offers greater flexibility, allowing only half of the seatback to be folded down for larger items while the remaining part can still accommodate passengers. Common split-folding ratios include: 1/3, 2/3, and 1/2. 1/3:2/3 split-folding: Typically found in rear seats with three seats, enabling two seats on one side or one seat on the other side to be folded down. 1/2 split-folding: Usually seen in rear seats with two seats, allowing one of the two seats to be folded down. 3. Full-folding rear seats mean the seatback is a single unit. When transporting large items that require more space, the entire rear seatback can be folded down to maximize space. The drawback of full-folding rear seats is that when they are folded down, passengers cannot sit in the rear.
I've been driving the GAC GS4 for a while, and folding down the rear seats is quite simple and convenient—it mainly relies on that small pull ring or lever at the top of the seatback. Here's how: First, sit in the back seat and feel along the top of the seatback for a small plastic pull strap or button. Give it a firm pull while using your other hand to push the seatback forward, and it will gradually lie flat. Once done, the entire seat folds down, instantly expanding the trunk space, which is perfect for large luggage or long items. Design details may vary slightly by model year—some have a locking mechanism, so make sure it clicks into place to prevent sliding. I often use this feature when transporting furniture, saving a lot of space, but avoid placing overly heavy items during operation to prevent damage to the seat mechanism.
