Abstract

A vehicle seat and armrest arrangement comprising two spaced apart backrests independently pivotable about a first axis between an upright passenger seating position and a lowered position and an armrest assembly interposed between the two backrests having an armrest portion, characterised in that the armrest portion is pivotally connected to a pivotable backboard member forming part of said armrest assembly, and that the armrest assembly is movable into three separate configurations, a first configuration in which the armrest portion and backboard are both in an upright position, a second configuration in which the armrest is in the lowered position and the backboard member is in an upright position and a third configuration in which the backboard and the armrest portion are both in a lowered position thereby allowing elongate objects to be carried between the backrests.
