Modularity in the back seat

[ronstar]

Ford seems to be pushing their term "modularity" in their SEMA video. Fenders, flares, wheels - all modular.

Why not add rear seats to the modularity? Take out the seats, add in a strongbox, etc. Seems to me that Ford can make the rear seats easily removable, and offer a host of accessories that can clamp in place of the seats.

They are listening...

I would not be surprised that MY22 and later have this functionality. It is low hanging fruit that opens up more accessories. I suspect we will continue to see the interior evolve over the coming years. It seems as if the inside was an afterthought in the development of the Bronco.

It would be easy to do. In a Wrangler, there is a single bar, similar to the seat slider in the front of most any car, that allows easy removal of the back seats. It wouldn't take much engineering to get this going. It's just two brackets that are bolted down to the floor, that the seat locks into when it folds down. I owned a 2013 2D Wrangler and I ran most of the time without the rear seat due to space constraints. When I knew I would have passengers, it was a 1 minute job to put them back in.

I’d like to see this as well, it’s one of the most interesting features of that little Maverick, that clever and spacious storage under seat
