How to fold down the rear seats of the new Sylphy?
2 Answers
The rear seats of the new Sylphy cannot be folded down, but they can be completely removed. The removal method is as follows: Simply lift from the bottom front of the seat to find that the seat is secured with clips, one on each side. After releasing the clips, the rear seat can be removed. Currently, there are two types of rear seat folding: proportional folding and full folding. Common proportional folding configurations include 60/40 and 40/20/40 splits, which can increase storage space and make it easier to place large or long items. The new Sylphy is a compact car launched by Dongfeng Nissan, with dimensions of 4641mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1450mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2712mm. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 99kW, and is paired with a CVT transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission.
Folding down the rear seats of the new Sylphy is actually quite simple. Whether you're sitting in the front row or observing from the trunk side, you can find a plastic handle or button on the side of the seat, usually near the bottom of the seatback. When pulling the handle, apply a bit of upward force while using your other hand to push the seatback forward to fold it down. The entire seat will naturally recline to the floor position, significantly increasing the space. During operation, keep your hands steady to avoid pinching injuries, and check if it's securely locked after completion. I often use this feature to load large luggage or suitcases, which saves a lot of effort when moving. If you encounter resistance, don't force it—there might be small objects stuck inside; clear them out and try again. To restore the seat to its original position, simply lift it gently and push it back until it clicks into place. It's a very practical feature.
