Abstract

An armrest subassembly for a motor vehicle is provided, which includes an arm support adjustable along a vertical vehicle axis, and a guide device through which the arm support is guided. According to one embodiment of the invention, the guide device has just one guide element which entends longitudinally along the adjustment direction with which the arm support is guided in the adjustment direction so that forces acting on the arm support in the vehicle longitudinal direction are introduced through the guide element into the supporting door element and movement of the arm support in the vehicle longitudinal direction is substantially prevented.
