How To Fold Down Rear Seats Honda Civic | Make Space For Large Cargo Or Furniture 2016-2022 10th Gen

In this video, young DIY auto mechanic Aiman will show you how to fold down the rear seats on your 10th Generation Honda Civic sedan in order to create or make more cargo space to fit larger and long items such as furniture, dresser, ski/surf board and even an 8-foot ladder. Tenth generation Honda Civic which covers the years 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 & 2022 are the best selling cars of any size. They are extremely popular as such the 10th gen Civic has many accessories you can buy online. Here are the #ad links to some of them:

Here's an instruction on how to fold down the rear top seats in order to provide access to more space inside the cabin of your Civic:

1. Pull the release lever in the trunk to release the lock.
2. Push the seat-back up firmly until it locks into place to return it to its original position. Make sure all items in the trunk or items extending through the opening into the rear seats are properly secured. Loose items can fly forward if you have to brake hard.

The back of the rear seat folds down to give you direct access to the trunk. Each side folds down separately. The seat-back can be released from inside the car or inside the trunk.

10th Gen Honda Civic trunk measures in at 15.1 cubic feet, offering enough space for weekend luggage and shopping bags. The fold-down rear seats in the 2020 Honda Civic allow drivers to easily expand the cargo space to make room for longer, bulkier items. The available 60/40-split rear seatback makes room for passengers and bulky cargo when space is needed for both.

They were first released in Nov 2015 (FC/CK). Three body styles were introduced with a near-identical design which are sedan, hatchback, and coupe. There's also Type R version.

It has either 2.0-liter engine or the more powerful 1.5-liter turbocharged four. At the end of the day, there was no clear-cut answer as to which version is best. The 1.5L Earth Dreams engine uses gasoline direct injection GDI to increase horsepower while improving fuel economy. Like other GDI engines, the injectors are fed gas through a high-pressure fuel pump. The 1.5L VTEC TURBO combines its turbo charger with a direct injection system and variable valve timing mechanism, retaining all the fuel economy benefits of a small engine. As a result, it produces a feel of power that is smooth from low revs to the high end, exceeding the torque of a 2.4L engine.

10th gen Civic comes in 10 trims with different features & configurations - EX, EX-L, EX-L Navi, EX-T, LX, LX-P, Sport, Sport Touring & Touring.

@EyeOnAiman I have been looking for any information on how, if possible, to put down the back seat in a 2015 honda civic 4 door LX. I have seen videos for cars up to 2012 for honda civics then for 2016 and up but none!!! that cover 2015 do you have any idea on where I can find a demo. on the 2015 of my car or is just like the earlier cars or later cars? Or can they not go down at all. I do not need back seats ever and just want to have the room. Thanks if you can help at all.
