The invention relates to an airbag arrangement for a motor vehicle, with—an airbag (), the airbag () having a first cushion layer () and a second cushion layer () opposite to the first cushion layer (), and—at least one tether arrangement (), the tether arrangement being connected to the airbag () and being connectable with one end to the motor vehicle outside the airbag ().

Airbag arrangement

A vehicle seat for a motor vehicle has a seat system including a seat cushion and a backrest, and an airbag apparatus which has an airbag and a retaining element, which is tensioned by filling the airbag. The retaining element has a connection region in which the retaining element is coupled to the airbag. By filling, the airbag can be moved from a stowed position to a functional position in which the airbag provides impact protection for an upper body of a seat occupant in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat. The retaining element has an additional connection region in which the retaining element is coupled to a retaining device of the vehicle seat. The retaining device is spaced apart from the backrest in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat.
