A retractable tonneau cover (100, Fig. 1) storage arrangement 30 is located below a forward edge 22 of a cushion 21 of a vehicle rear seat 20. This enables storage of the cover with easy access, without impeding luggage room. The arrangement is intended to work especially well in electric vehicles or other vehicles which have a flat rear floor, as they lack a transmission tunnel in the footwell in front of the rear seats. Brackets (31, Fig. 6) may engage with spring biased retractable end caps (111, Fig. 3) on the tonneau cover roller (110). The brackets may each comprise a clip, such as an omega clip, to grip around the end portion of the tonneau roller. A hook (36) may be provided to engage with cover handle (102) to stabilize the cover when stored. Recess (25) may allow the handle to be gripped comfortably for release of the cover from the hook.
