How do you remove the Toyota Sienna’s middle seat?

I have a 2018 Toyota Sienna LE, and I’m having a little trouble getting the middle seat out. I’m going on a big camping road trip with my partner, so it’d be nice to have the extra space in the back. What’s the best way to remove the Toyota Sienna’s middle seat?

Road trips
can be loads of fun, especially when you go in a car like the
Toyota Sienna LE
. The extra storage and comfortable seats make long drives especially easy!
Follow these steps to remove the Toyota Sienna’s middle seat and maximize your space:
  • Locate and pull the release strap on the top right of your driver’s side middle row seat.
  • Lower the seat until it’s flat.
  • Pull the release strap underneath the front of the seat to unlatch it. At this point, the seat should detach.
  • Close the retractable leg by folding it inwards.
  • Store the seat in the seat storage space in your trunk—cushion side first. Make sure it’s safely secured with the included stow latch.
If you follow these steps, you should have an easy time removing the middle seat from your Toyota Sienna. But if you’re still struggling with the process consult our owner’s manual for further instructions.
