I have the 2 + 1 configuration. The middle seat (in the US at least) has a seat belt. We can fit two adults comfortably with our toddler or small child in the middle even in a slim car seat.

Do you guys find the middle seat headrest to be a little obstructive? The rear window is already very small

I’m planning to just remove it and store it underneath the rear trunk floor until I have an occasional passenger in the car.

Even then, most likely it’s a kid that’s in the middle, who won’t even be tall enough to use the headrest.

The middle seat headrest when all the way down does not obstruct the view in a sedan. The trunk cover comes up higher than the headrest. Might be different for a Turismo.

My view roughly.

I got the 2+1 but its only for the ability to have the middle seat fold down for cargo/golf.
Does the middle seat fold down by itself? I thought it only has a pass through. I need to check it out tomorrow, but last time I checked I saw it folds down with the other seat next to it. So it’s a 60/40 with a pass through.

The center folds by itself. I dont have my Taycan yet but I have this feature on my Panamera and I find it very useful at times.

It's a nice bonus for me then because I spec'ed it thinking what if I needed it one day. Mostly, just me and the wife.

Is there any aftermarket way outside Porsche to convert a 4 seater to a 5 seater? Through Porsche it is not possible unfortunately

I don't know, if in NL it would be enough to change the back-seats.
For sure that is kind of plug and play.
In Germany, it would be a long way, as the car would need a "re-certification", because it is declared as 4-seater.

I asked at porschezentrum stuttgart and porschecentrum leusden. Both say no go.
so i wondered if there is a workaround. I never thought of the re-certification though. That makes a lot of sense!
