How to fold down the rear seats of the Borgward BX7?
2 Answers
On both sides of the rear seats, there is a hand grip (gray pull strap). Simply pull the hand grip to fold down the seats directly. The rear seats of the Borgward BX7 support a 4/6 split-folding function, providing a maximum cargo capacity of 1,377 liters when folded. Below is more information about the Borgward BX7: 1. The Borgward BX7 is a mid-size SUV and the first SUV model launched after Borgward's revival. It features a sporty exterior design and offers 5-seat or 7-seat configurations, earning it the title of '5/7-seat optional wide-body SUV'. 2. The Borgward BX7 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged direct-injection engine, derived from Borgward's proprietary G01 powertrain platform. It was jointly developed by Borgward's global R&D team and renowned powertrain companies such as FEV and Ricardo, delivering a maximum power output of 165 kW and a peak torque of 300 N·m. The use of direct fuel injection ensures highly efficient power delivery.
I remember the last time I drove the Borgward BX7 for a picnic, folding down the rear seats was quite a practical experience. Folding down the rear seats of the Borgward BX7 is very simple. First, sit in the rear seats. There is usually a small pull tab or button on the top or side of the seat—just pull it to recline the backrest. If you need to flatten it completely, there might be an additional step: pull the strap under the seat cushion to fold the entire seat forward. After folding, it frees up more space, making it convenient for loading items like skis or luggage. However, be sure to ensure no one is inside the car during the operation and check that the seat lock is securely fastened to prevent accidental popping up while driving, as this relates to driving safety. I got the hang of it after a few tries—Borgward’s design is quite user-friendly in this aspect, significantly increasing the trunk size, which is especially suitable for family trips or shopping. Don’t forget to clear any debris before releasing the seats to avoid jamming and affecting the operation.
