An embodiment of the invention relates to a system for receiving cargo or passengers in a vehicle. The system includes a bottom beam and several functional units, wherein each functional unit includes a floor segment and a seat row with several passenger seats being attached to the floor segment. Each functional unit is assigned to a pivoting device for pivoting the functional unit relatively to bottom beam. Another embodiment of the invention relates to a vehicle having such a system.
