The second-row seats of the Dacia Jogger are in a position to fold forwards in an effort to present quick access to the third-row seats. Throughout this course of, I seen that in the event you hold each side of the two+1 cut up rear bench folded, then you definately get limo-levels of legroom and an important panoramic view of the cabin. Mixed with third-row facilities just like the armrests, cupholders, energy plug, fold-our rear home windows, and the upper seating place made this my favourite place to sit down within the Jogger.
