A Review- Design and Development of Driver Seat of Passenger Car

Automotive seating systems are critical components that influence driver comfort, safety, and vehicle ergonomics. The driver seat must provide structural support, vibration absorption, and proper posture during long driving durations. This paper reviews the design and development of passenger car driver seats with a focus on seat structure, polyurethane foam cushioning, trimming technologies, and integration of safety systems such as Seat Belt Reminder (SBR) sensors. Modern automotive seats are designed using high‑strength steel frames combined with molded polyurethane foam and advanced upholstery techniques including trim wires and Velcro fasteners. Computer‑Aided Design (CAD) tools are widely used to model seat structures and evaluate their mechanical performance before production. The study summarizes research findings related to seat ergonomics, materials, and structural analysis that improve driver comfort and safety.
