A structure of seat in which a reinforcing element is provided to protect it against deformation due to a lateral collision. The reinforcing element comprises a reinforcing rod and a pair of plate elements fixed to the respective two ends of the reinforcing rod. This reinforcing element is attached to the outer surface of a pre-assembled seat unit so as to extend transversely of the seat unit. Further, the two plate elements are disposed adjacent to a lateral side of the vehicle and adjacent to a floor tunnel in vehicle, respectively, so that a lateral load applied to the lateral side of vehicle is transmitted through the reinforcing element to the floor tunnel.
