GLE 450 - Rear Seat Adjustment
Guys,
Sorry one more question. In the GLC we see that there is a button you can press from the back of the seat ( so when the trunk is open, you can reach and press the button) to lower the rear seats to get more cargo space. In GLE 350 we test drove, you must manually pull them from the inside. Is there an option to have this like the GLC style so automatically they drop and can come back up on their own?
Also can you recline the back of the back seats or do you need a 3rd row option?
Is having a 3rd row option bad if you will hardly (less than 1% of the time) use them? Dont they get dirt/sand/etc in them from the trunk?

I have the third row. They fold into the floor, and I haven't had an issue with dirt/sand, but if you're concerned you can buy a trunk liner that you can take out (or roll up) when you need access to the third row. Only downside to the 3rd row is you lose a spare tire, and get Run Flats (or a repair kit/inflator) if tire size is too big for run flats) With the 3rd row, the second row is powered, and the second row seats fold down and up with the press of a button in the on the right side of the rear cargo area.
