Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat includes a lower seat part that includes a seat cushion and a backrest, the backrest connected to the seat cushion such that the backrest can rotate about a first axis. The seat cushion is configured for movement between a use position and a loading position by rotating the seat cushion through approximately 180&#xb0; about a second axis parallel to the first axis. The seat further includes a first lever and a second lever for defining the movement between the use position and the loading position. The first lever and second lever are coupled to the lower seat part at a first location and a second location. The first location is closer to the front in relation to a direction of travel as compared to the second location and the first lever is positioned essentially identically both in the use position and in the loading position.
