Why is it suitable for household use? We need to talk about it in terms of its flexible layout. For the 223 MPV, most models have the most comfortable seats in the second row, because the second row is called the boss seat. Among Matway’s original seats, the second row is not the most comfortable, because these two chairs can be rotated, so the cushions are not too long, while the third row of seats are flat and large. Most of us experience that the third row is more comfortable than the second row. In the German design, the business car of the boss should take the A8LMagre S-class, 7-series this kind of car. MPV, on the other hand, serves family and work. You will find that in Volkswagen’s MPV design, the comfort of each seat will be about the same, there will be no obvious difference between primary and secondary. For example, Tuan, Sharon, Matway, everyone’s seats are treated equally, because in a family car, there should be no distinction between primary and secondary, otherwise, if a family travels, who should take the boss’s chair in the middle? Second, Matway has a higher chassis, a harder suspension, and a four-wheel drive. Which business car needs to be pursued over mountains and mountains? The hard hanging is also not friendly to the boss’s business entertainment. Thirdly, among the models at the same price, the configuration of Matway is more practical than comfortable. For example, in the big handbrake, which has remained unchanged for decades, the second and third rows of seats are purely manual, and even the windows of the second row of cars are opened in the same way as minivans. In fact, people who don’t know about it will scoff at these old designs, but they don’t know that these manual functions have a special use for a MPV that can be converted into a camper.

Next, I’m going to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of these seat layouts I’ve experienced. The reason why I chose Matway is that it is a good car to take a family to travel. My wife, parents and two daughters (one is nine years old and the other is four years old) have taken six people on several long-distance trips. For many other MPV, when all three rows of seats are open, the luggage space in the trunk is very limited, but Matway’s back two seats are all connected to one track, and the limit can make room for half a car to be used as a truck!
Plan A: it is the default way to ride, and everyone can get a better ride space. the disadvantage is that there is a small retractable table in the middle of the second row that can not enter the third row, and the second row of seats must be moved back and forth to enter the third row. Most people don’t know how to move this seat. Drivers have to get on and off the bus and run back and forth to help move their seats, which is very inconvenient. So it only took me a short time to give up this plan.
Plan B: the second row flips the direction, and the passengers should face the rear of the car. There are many advantages in this scheme. First, it is convenient for passengers in the second and third rows to get on and off the bus because of the huge opening. Second, the conversation between the second and third rows of passengers is very convenient, face-to-face, if it is to take care of the children is also very easy to deal with. Third, the legroom of the second and third rows can be shared and both can be very comfortable. Fourth, the small round table is also easy to use in the middle, and there is no problem with having a meal temporarily, playing cards, writing homework and so on. The only disadvantage is that not everyone can get used to the second row passenger sitting backwards, and some people will get carsick. I have adopted this scheme for a long time, because only Matway can play this way, and short trips with relatives and friends can attract everyone’s attention.
Plan D: it was my plan to run in Inner Mongolia a while ago, because my Xiao Bao didn’t like to sit in the safety seat when he slept in the car, so he had to sleep on his back. So you can only rotate the No. 3 seat to block the three rows and let her sleep on the No. 5-6 seat. Dabao sits on seat 4 and his wife sits on seat 7, so she can take care of two babies at the same time. The disadvantage of this scheme is that getting on and off the bus must open both doors at the same time, because there is no way from left to right.
Plan C: it’s what I think is the most optimal plan at the moment, but at the expense of my little round table. Because considering the low frequency of the use of the small round table, although very reluctant to give up, but in order to solve the problem of three rows in and out, had to be dismantled. In this scheme, mom sits in the No. 3 chair and moves back close to three rows. There is a lot of space in front, so you can put something temporarily or hang up clothes. Dabao sits in the No. 4 chair and can move forward and lower her legs with a tidying box as a pedal and a storage space at the same time. Xiao Bao sits in the No. 5-6 chair, can sit and lie down, and his wife sits in the No. 7 chair to take care of Xiao Bao. He can enter and exit through the middle aisle. This scheme is more flexible, if I take an adult, I only need to adjust the front and back of the No. 3 chair to switch between family and friend mode.

Recently, I took a short long trip. It happened to be rainy and I also took a mountain road. Let’s talk about your feelings:
1. Passing through pits is obviously not as hard as before, and the comfort is improved;
2. Tire noise is reduced, leaving wind noise when running at high speeds;
3. Fuel consumption has been reduced;
4. There is no slippage on rainy days, and there is no problem running paved mountain roads;
5. There is no test whether the braking distance is shortened, and no problems have been found so far with non-emergency braking.
