Abstract:
A walk-in apparatus for a vehicular seat provides a space behind the vehicular seat even when a seat back is not folded forwards during a walk-in motion. Since the rear end of a seat cushion is raised when the walk-in motion is performed, a space for accommodating the rear seat passenger's feet is provided under the seat cushion, thereby improving the rear seat passenger's comfort.
