What are the dimensions of the Octavia's rear seats when folded down?

[Thaddeus]

When the rear seats are folded down, the trunk and rear backrest can be leveled, with maximum dimensions of 174cm in length and 100cm in width, allowing a 1.7-meter-tall adult to lie flat with legs stretched out. Types of rear seat folding: There are mainly two methods: split-folding and full-folding. With full-folding, the rear seats cannot accommodate passengers; with split-folding, the unfolded portion can still seat passengers. Obtaining additional space: When more space is needed, the rear seat backrests can be folded down to create a larger area. The gesture control system allows the driver to operate the central console by performing specific hand gestures within a designated area.

The Octavia's rear seats fold down to offer impressive cargo space. I measured it before - the depth is about 1.85 meters, the narrowest width is around 1 meter, and the height is approximately 70-80 cm. These dimensions make it perfect for loading bicycles or large items when moving. For camping trips with two people, just add an air mattress and it becomes a comfortable sleeping space. While you need to angle longer items like snowboards or surfboards slightly, it's still much more convenient than a regular sedan. The hatchback design provides a large opening for easy loading - just remember to remove the trunk partition for maximum practicality when carrying luggage.

The rear seats of my Octavia can be folded down to a measured length of 1.82 meters, with the widest part of the trunk being just over 1 meter and a height of about 78 cm. This space utilization is quite impressive for its class—it can easily accommodate flat-pack wardrobes from IKEA. When helping my sister transport flower shop pots, the combination of the rear seats and trunk can stack over a dozen large flower pots. If carrying cargo, remember to buy a trunk mat to protect the seat backs, as the fabric can easily get scratched. The hatchback rear window can also be removed separately for easy access to small items without needing to open the entire tailgate.

As someone who works at construction sites every day, I always keep the rear seats of my Octavia folded down. The distance from the inner edge of the trunk to the back of the front seats is about 1.76 meters, with the seat cushion protruding a few centimeters, making the flattest area around 1.72 meters. The width is 1.05 meters in the middle, narrowing to 95 centimeters near the wheel arches on both sides. The highest point is 81 centimeters, enough to stand a ladder upright. The key advantage is the hatchback tailgate, which can carry oddly shaped items even better than an SUV. Last week, I transported a 1.8-meter PVC pipe by fitting it diagonally. Remember to secure the cargo with straps during transport, or it might slide forward and hit the dashboard when braking.
