Abstract

A longitudinally adjustable vehicle seat includes a first rail fixed to the structure, a second rail guided in the first rail and connected to the vehicle seat, a releasable locking device for locking the position of the first rail relative to the second rail, first, second, and third end stops, which limit the movability of the rail pair, wherein one of the end stops can be disabled by a stop surface that can be moved out of the path of travel of the rails. The movable stop surface is arranged on the second rail, and the end stop that can be disabled, on which the movable stop surface is formed, can be actuated together with the locking device in order for an easy-entry position to be assumed.
