rear seat
Passengers sit here
A rear seat is any seat in the back portion of a vehicle, as opposed to the front seats where the driver and front passenger sit.
The term appears most often in discussions of child safety—car seats must be installed in the rear seat—and in descriptions of vehicle capacity: The rear seat folds down to expand cargo space.
Also called back seat.
