Abstract
A vehicle having a vehicle body that includes a floor, partially defining the inside of the passenger compartment of the vehicle, a movable seat extending over the floor in the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and a foot support device for the occupant of the seat extending over the floor near the seat and defining a surface for receiving the feet. The support device is deformable relative to the body of the vehicle so as to modify at least the orientation of the receiving surface. The deformation of the support device is coupled with the movement of the seat such that the movement of the seat causes a coordinated deformation of the support device.
