If you want to go on holiday with five people and a lot of luggage,
simply remove the rear two seats
⇒fig. 103.

180°, you can also use your Alhambra as a mobile conference
room or as a breakfast room

If you are planning to cycle during your vacation, you can transport
your bicycle inside the Alhambra, in this way protecting it from
theft and inclement weather. Technical Service Centres carry the
corresponding supports
⇒fig. 105.
A surfer can quite easily take his or her equipment with them. You
don’t need to mount a roof rack on the vehicle and can thus save
fuel
