Seating arrangement for a vehicle

摘要

The seating arrangement 9 comprises at least a first seat 11 and a second seat 12 side by side. At least part of the seat cushion of the second seat 12 is displaceable in an up-down direction relative to the seat cushion of the first seat 11, and at least part of the seat back of the second seat 12 is displaceable in a forward-rearward direction relative to the seat back of the first seat 11 so as to allow movement of one of the seats in a sideways direction toward the other. The seat cushion and seat back of the second seat 12 may be foldable, in particular to form a lateral restraint and/or an arm rest. Alternatively, the seat cushion and seat back of the second seat may be displaceable to below the seat cushion and behind the seat back of the first seat. The seating arrangement enables the rear passenger seats in the vehicle to be transformed between a 3-seat configuration to a 2-seat configuration.
