What is a Honda HRV Magic Seat?

I love Honda cars and have bought them my entire life, but there’s something new in the Honda HR-V that I’ve never heard of before called the Magic Seat. What is it, and is the Magic Seat something I should consider when I need to buy my next car?

It’s so great that you’ve found a brand of cars that speak to you, and
Honda HRV
is a fan-favorite across the world. But it is also a car brand that continues to innovate and has done so again with a new kind of foldable passenger seat, called The Magic Seat®.
The Magic Seat offers three unique positions which maximize car space and passenger comfort. They are:
  • Tall mode which allows the rear bench seats to fold upwards against the back restraint, creating a long area to store cargo. This gives you the effect of two different trunk compartments, one in front and one behind the folded-up rear seats.
  • Utility mode is similar to options other car brands have. It allows the rear seats to fold forward and lie flat, extending the trunk to the two front seats.
  • Long mode turns the front passenger seat into a lie flat. This can be used to increase the area of your trunk or if you want a comfortable place to catch a quick snooze.
The Magic Seat® might be perfect for those who need numerous cargo space options in their next car. But everyone wants the best car insurance at the cheapest price, so you should check out
