It is normal that the rear seats of Jetour X70 cannot lie completely flat because the Jetour X70 does not have a fully flat-folding function for its rear seats. The rear seats of a car are a type of car seat. Question regarding whether the rear seats of Jetour X70 can lie flat: The rear seats of Jetour X70 cannot lie completely flat, but they can be folded down in a 4/6 split ratio. There is an adjustment handle beside the rear seats of Jetour X70; by turning this handle, the seats can be folded down. After folding the rear seats in a 4/6 split ratio, a relatively flat space can be formed. Requirements for car seats: The arrangement of seats within the entire cabin should be reasonably planned. The design of the seats should conform to human physiological functions. The seats must be safe and reliable. Various adjustment mechanisms designed to meet the comfort needs of drivers and passengers should be equipped with reliable locking devices to ensure safety.
As a long-term owner of the Jetour X70 for three years, I find it quite normal that the rear seats don't fold completely flat. I noticed this slight angle design when I first picked up the car, and later confirmed with other owners in WeChat groups that it's a common feature. The main reason is that the seatback hinges and cushioning layers were intentionally designed with slight clearance during manufacturing to prevent squeaks or wear after prolonged use. For my daily needs like grocery shopping or camping, this minor unevenness doesn't affect loading luggage - in fact, it helps secure slippery items. I've tested placing large boxes, and they actually stay more stable. When I truly need a completely flat space, I simply place a wooden board or air mattress in the trunk, which is both cost-effective and practical. Overall, this design is common across the X70 series and shouldn't be overthought - it's perfectly adequate for daily use. Similar models from other brands like Geely or Changan often share this characteristic too.
