An elevator car includes a car body having a car floor, one or more car sidewalls, and a car ceiling. A movable floor panel is located at the car floor. The movable floor panel is configured to be moved between a stowed position and a raised position, such that access to an elevator system hoistway is gained via the movable floor panel in the raised positon. A method of performing maintenance on an elevator system component includes moving an elevator car along a hoistway to a maintenance position, raising a movable floor panel of the elevator car from a stowed position to a raised position, accessing an elevator system component located in the hoistway outside of the elevator car through an opening in the elevator car via the movable floor panel located in the raised position, and performing maintenance on the component from inside of the elevator car.
