Since a seat cushion of a vehicle seat has an engagement piece projecting from the rear end thereof, the engagement piece is inevitably caught by a rear end area of an upper panel portion of an under cover, which causes a user to have an uncomfortable feeling. The present invention prevents the engagement piece from being caught by the rear end area of the upper panel portion and thus prevents the user from having an uncomfortable feeling. In the present invention, an engagement piece 20 projects from a rear end of a seat cushion, and an under cover 17, made of a synthetic resin material, has an upper panel portion 17u for covering an upper surface of a base element, wherein the upper panel portion has an rear end area which slopes upwardly. Formed in a sloped surface of such upwardly-sloped rear end area of the upper panel portion is a guide groove 22 which is a guide portion extending in forward and rearward directions and allowing the engagement piece 20 to be moved therein, without being contacted with the upwardly sloped surface of the rear end are of the upper panel portion, at the time when the rear end of the seat cushion is slidingly brought to a lower end of a seat back. Ribs 22a are formed in a bottom surface of the guide groove. Hence, the guide groove 22 serves as a passing space, and the engagement piece 20 can be moved forwardly and rearwardly in that guide groove, so that the engagement piece can be pressed against and frictionally engaged with the lower end of the seat back, without being caught by the upwardly sloped surface (upper surface) of the rear end area of the upper panel portion,
