Abstract

A seat for a vehicle includes a sitting portion, a movable back; and a first guide mechanism configured to move the back from a first edge of the sitting portion to an opposite second edge of the sitting portion. The back is assembled on the sitting portion by a movable element including a base configured to move between the first edge of the sitting portion and the opposite second edge, and a support assembled pivoting on the movable base. The movable base is in a form of a stirrup, a base of the stirrup extending from a first lateral edge to a second latent edge of the sitting portion. Each branch of the stirrup extends substantially parallel to the first lateral edge and is curved at a free end under the sitting portion.
