The method to lift up the rear seats of the New Sagitar: 1. There are handles on both sides of the rear seat headrests, near the windows. Pull these handles; 2. The backrest of the rear seat will fold forward. Most of the rear seat cushions can be lifted by pressing them towards the rear of the car and then lifting upwards. The FAW-Volkswagen New Sagitar is a German spacious A+ class comfortable sedan, incorporating Bauhaus minimalist and practical design elements. It comes with three engine configurations: a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, a 1.4TSI turbocharged engine, and a 1.8TSI turbocharged engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission respectively.

As a long-time Sagitar owner, I've been driving mine for nearly five years. Lifting the rear seats is actually quite straightforward, but it requires following the steps carefully. First, park the car securely and turn off the engine for safety. Then crouch down near the front edge of the seat close to the door - you'll spot a small plastic pull tab or button. Pull it upward while supporting the seat cushion with your other hand, applying slight upward pressure until you hear the latch release. You can then gently lift the cushion - avoid being too forceful to prevent damaging the latches. This procedure allows you to clean dust/debris beneath the seats or create extra trunk space for luggage. I do this frequently, especially during seasonal changes to check for dampness or mold in the carpeting. The new Sagitar's seat design is very user-friendly, making reseating effortless, but first-timers should use finesse rather than brute force. Always double-check that the latches are securely re-engaged afterward to prevent loosening while driving.

As a new driver just getting familiar with my Sagitar, I find lifting the rear seats isn't complicated. After getting in the car, locate the small lever at the front of the seat, usually near the door side. Gently pull it upward to release the seat cushion, then simply lift it by hand. Make sure you're seated steadily or squat properly during operation to avoid slipping. This gives easy access to clean the carpet underneath or place larger items. After trying it several times myself, I find it particularly useful for cleaning debris during car washes. Remember not to use excessive force - broken clips can be troublesome to repair. Regular operation like this also prevents garbage accumulation under seats, which affects cabin air quality.

As a car enthusiast, I find the seat design of the Sagitar fascinating. Its rear seat cushion lifting mechanism is quite scientific: there are two fixing points with clips underneath the seat. By pulling the release loop at the front edge of the seat, a simple lever unlocks it, and lifting the seat upwards will separate it. The entire operation is lightweight and efficient, taking less than a minute to complete. You can use it to check the carpet or expand the trunk capacity. It's worth noting that similar systems are commonly used in Volkswagen models, and applying even force during operation is key to avoid deforming the clips.
