A vehicle seat has a headrest with a center pad and two side pads that are laterally hinged to the center pad. The side pads are swivellable forward into a resting position and back into a supporting position. The center pad has a variable pad hardness, with a firmer pad hardness in the supporting position than in the resting position.

A vehicle seat having a seat surface and a seatback is tiltable about a transversely extending pivot axis. The seatback is arranged to be tiltable from an upright seat position into a tilted resting position. In order to achieve a comfortable setting of the headrest in all seat positions and resting positions, the seatback has an automatically driven height adjustment apparatus and an automatically driven tilt adjustment apparatus, each positioned within the seatback.
