captain chairs

Individual swivel seats

Captain chairs are individual seats with armrests, typically found in vehicles like minivans and SUVs where they replace a bench seat in the second row.

The name evokes the commanding chair of a ship's captain.

They offer easier access to third-row seating and a more premium feel: We opted for captain chairs instead of the bench seat.
