ABSTRACT:
A third row seat of a vehicle includes a seat back which can be folded down onto a seat cushion, and a headrest which can be pivoted rearward with respect to the seat back. The seat cushion is mounted on the vehicle floor so as to be pivotable rearward. A recess is formed in the floor of the vehicle behind the third row seat. The recess stores the third row seat, with the seat back being folded down, the headrest being pivoted rearward, and the third row seat being pivoted rearward. The headrest is located within a path of the pivotal motion of the seat back and the seat cushion, without increasing the path of the pivotal motion.
