Seating for the whole family.
The short and sweet of it:
Third-row seats offer flexible seating options and tend to fold away neatly when you don’t need the extra seats.
Why does it matter to me?
Vehicles with a third row give you a lot of versatility, no matter who or what you’re transporting. You need room for your crew? With the third row in place you have seating for seven, sometimes even nine, depending on your vehicle’s configuration.
You need extra cargo space to haul your busy family’s gear or moving supplies? In most vehicles, the third row folds away when you need the extra space, at the push of a button in some higher-end vehicles.
Our veteran sales consultants from around the country consistently say that many families are looking for third-row seats when shopping for their next vehicle.
You need room for long items and still have passengers? In many vehicles, you have the option to fold the second- and third-row seats on one side of the vehicle, with your passengers sitting on the other side.
Not all third rows are easy to access, nor roomy enough for adult passengers. But if you like the option of having seats for the whole family or plenty of cargo space, a third row is a convenient feature to have in your family’s ride.
Picture yourself in this scenario:
You’re packing your minivan for your family’s annual ski trip. You have all three rows in place and fold down the right side of the second and third rows. There’s plenty of room for your skis to slide in plus seats for all four passengers. Now that’s why a third-row seat is a great feature to have in your next vehicle.
