I do not have RSE but I do have the rear vents! The rear vents were an option on mine.

You can have them as a stnad alone option on LHD cars (certainly in Europe) but not UK spec RHD ones - I tried to order for mine and it was rejected by VISTA.

+1 - but as they only appear to blow cold air from outside I'm glad I didn't end up with them !!

I got them for that very reason. In the winter the car will warm up fine but in the summer my son liked having cold air in the back. Can get rather stuffy back there!

Yes, but then you have the AC on cold and blowing into the rear via the vents under the seats - no?

They don't have the same effect under the seats. We had rear vents in our D3 & D4 and the kids loved them.

I'll take your word for it - unfortunately I can't test your theory as we seem to have bypassed summer over here this year! Laughing

Whilst I "might" understand why LHD Evoques have the rear vents and the UK RHD do not, does not quite add when you consider that Evoques for our friends down under have the option of rear air vents... they also get the option of roof rails, whereas we have order from dealers as an accessory. Then again they don't have the benefit of the Lux pack! Smile

Overall very confused by all these, in my view, unnecessary differences.

That's right. The rear vents are a $190 option downunder.
