So did I! And got the first one in Canada, but everyone is right the seats never autmotically unfold after coming down from the side....go try that and then let us know...becuz if urs does it then we have a case against lexus

 

I'm just trying to picture this.
Mine come off the side, then I manually pull them up with the strap.
When I want to fold down and away, this is fully powered.

I went to Youtube and noticed that a car that shows powered seats (and the straps to manually pull up) has a wood grain (looking) piece for the 2nd row cupholder piece.

 

On Lexus.ca they list the rear seats as "power fold up" 3rd row seats.

With the ultra premium package the rear seats are power fold up and power fold down

 

But I'm wondering if the "power fold up" is where they fold up into the sides (and away)
If anyone has a photo of a Canadian 570, I would imagine if it folds into "sitting position" by power, it wouldnt have the pull handles..
Why wouldnt they offer any of this cool stuff here?

 

I would like to see a video of the Canadian seats going both up and down. I am betting we are having a communication problem here but a video link would do it. LOL! My seats have not been down except when the dealer did the run thru at delivery, they have been up from that day forward.

I also just went and looked at the new interior images posted on a Canadian 570, in this forum, and there is an image of the rear seat folder down but the backs not in the up position. Note these same Canadian seats with the delux everything package got the same straps on the back of the seat to life the backrest that mine does!

Hmmm.

 

The Canadian Lexus LX models come with an option that can power down the third row seats. The seat back has the strap and is manual pull.

 

As I remember my seats fold up and down but the seat back has got to be lifted manually with the strap.

Is there a delux model that the strap is not needed and the seat back folds upright without pulling the strap?
