Just going through the options on the Octavia and can't get my head around what this is or does

Push button so you can drop the rear seats?

Push button so you can drop the rear seats?

Isn't there a lever to drop the rear seats anyway

What's the advantage of a button over a lever?

Maybe its remove yhem completely? With the older design it was a (tiny) bit of a fiddly pita to remove the seat backs. And the middle seat belt always caused grief.. maybr they have made it easier?

I might be wrong here but it sounds the same as what I have in my Mazda6, you have the buttons as normal on the seats but you have a pair of levers that allow you to drop the seats from the boot - looking at the Octavia pictures on Parkers, there's release buttons in exactly the same place:

 

 

 

That's just a guess though and probably best asking on the Octavia forums.

 

If it is that feature and you use the full load space, I think it's a great feature - I mostly use the car for carrying the bike and it's great just being able to open the boot, hit the releases and slide the bike in,.
