ABSTRACT:
A vehicle seat apparatus in which a seat is rotated around a rotational shaft to the rear of a vehicle in such a manner that a bottom surface of a seat cushion is made to face the inside of a passenger compartment so that the seat can be stowed in a recessed portion. The rotational shaft extends in a transverse direction along a front edge of the recessed portion to be fixed to a vehicle body at ends thereof. A seat cushion and a seat back of the seat are both divided into at least two in a widthwise direction. Respective seats so divided are rotatably supported on the rotational shaft individually.
