A seat assembly (10) for a vehicle with a seat cushion (12), a seat back (14) connected to the seat cushion, a front link (22) having an upper end and a lower end, and a rear link (24) having an upper end and a lower end. The upper end of the front link is connected to the seat cushion for pivotal movement about a first axis (32), while the lower end of the front link is connected to the vehicle for pivotal movement about a second axis (50). The front link is further connected to either the seat cushion or the vehicle for sliding movement from a first position to a second position. The upper end of the rear link is connected to the seat cushion for pivotal movement about a third axis (34), while the lower end of the rear link is connected to the vehicle for pivotal movement about a fourth axis (30). The seat assembly may be transitioned from a first use position to a second use position by pivoting the seat cushion about the second axis and the fourth axis. The seat assembly may also be transitioned from the first use position to a stowed position by sliding the front link from the first position to the second position and by rotating the seat cushion about the third axis.
