Abstract
A seating system for a vehicle is disclosed herein. The seating system includes a first seating assembly having a first seat base pivotable between use and pivoted positions. A second seating assembly is adjacent to the first seating assembly and includes a second seat base that is pivotable between use and pivoted positions. The first and second seat bases are operable between interdependent conditions, wherein movement of the first seat base between the use and pivoted positions causes the second seat base to move between the use and pivoted positions, and independent conditions, wherein the first seat base is operable to move between the use and pivoted positions independently of the second seat base.
