Abstract

A vehicle seat having a vehicle seat base comprising a generally concave seat pan (4) and side plates (16) fixed to the seat pan for mounting the seat pan to the vehicle wherein the seat pan has, all relative to the direction of movement of the vehicle, a front face, a rear face, two lateral side faces and a bottom face, and wherein the side plates extend from the front towards the rear of the seat pan and are bonded to the lateral side faces along at least part of the length of each of the side plates. This produces a lightweight yet rigid seat base which enables a low block height.
