So this is the new 2019 to Toyota rav4 le and today we're going to be folding down
The rear seats will show you how to do that
We'll also take some measurements of the cargo area and we'll also show you a tip or trick that you're gonna want to stick around
To the end to see so let's get right into it
So first off when you go to the trunk of the rav4, you're gonna see two handles
there's one over here on the left-hand side and
Another one over here on the right
When you go ahead and pull these up its gonna release the seat to fold forward and
The exact same thing on the other side just lift up the handle and you can push the seat forward
Taking a closer look at the seat
You can see there's these pop-up tabs with a little orange stripe on them and once the seat is securely in place
They go down and you don't see the orange at all when you release it
They pop up so it's a safety mechanism. You know that if you can see the orange the seat is not securely in place
So you can see the seats are flush here, and there's actually another cool feature that you can recline
The rear seats just lift up the handle and pull the seat back towards you you can see here
It goes back a couple of inches and it does this on both sides
It's really handy if you want to have a snooze in the back seat
So let's take a closer. Look at the cargo space dimensions. Toyota says it behind the rear seats. There's a total of
37.6 cubic feet you can see from the bottom of the rear seats to the hatch door. You're right around forty inches on
the inside of the wheel well in
The narrowest part you're right around 39 inches
And the wider part of the wheel well
Looks like a little over 45 inches and the widest part of the trunk area
About 53 inches
The height from the floor to the top of the hatch area
32 inches
So the total cargo volume that Toyota says from behind the front seats is sixty nine point eight Cubic Feet.
I have the seat pushed all the way forward and you can see it can get almost eighty inches
From the back of the front seat to the hatch door
When I move it to the center console and go back to the hatch. It's right around
Seventy two inches of space. So six feet
Now I promised you one tip or trick that most people don't know about on this 2019 rav4 and it's really cool
especially if you have pets you can grab this whole floor system and
Pull it out and you can flip it over and it creates a hard floor for the back hatch trunk area. It's really great
If you have pets or your moving kind of dirty things it's not gonna make your carpeting all dirty
You can just pop it in there. It slides in
Exactly into place where it was on the other side and it'll keep your trunk nice and clean and it's really easy
You just pull it out and flip it over
So I hope this video helped you out and folding down the rear seats and figuring out how much cargo room there is in the
new Toyota rav4
I also hope that you can make use of the tip of flipping over the floor and the trunk if this video helped you out
Make sure to give it a thumbs up
