Abstract

The task of the invention is to further develop a motor vehicle seat and in particular a motor vehicle rear seat so that operation is simplified and different functional positions are assumed quickly and conveniently

The task of the invention is solved by a motor vehicle seat is equipped with at least a seat area, a backrest and, if necessary, a headrest as seat elements. Furthermore, at least respectively a detachable bolting unit assigned to the seat area, the back area and the optional headrest is executed. Furthermore, at least one handle is provided to act on the bolting unit(s). The seat elements can assume several different functional positions. According to the invention, the single handle is set up to act on at least an electrical drive assigned to the bolting unit(s) and thus to execute all functional positions.

Claims
