Abstract
A personal automotive vehicle includes a seat and a moveable door panel in an interior of the passenger cabin, both of which are moveable between a forward and a rearward position. The moveable door panel is configured for movement such that a longitudinal position of the door panel with respect to the seat can be maintained with corresponding seat movement. The moveable door panel can help provide a perception to a seat occupant that they are properly positioned within the passenger cabin, even at an extreme rearward seat position.
