A method for operating a motor vehicle having a seat arranged in an interior of the motor vehicle for a passenger, into which seat at least one oscillator for transmitting oscillations to the passenger's body is integrated, and having a sound system for acoustic sound reproduction in the interior, includes determining the passenger's passenger state and selecting and reproducing a type of a sound sequence that is associated with the passenger's state via the sound system. The at least one such oscillator is activated on the basis of the selected type of sound sequence. In this way, convenience functions and/or assistance systems of the motor vehicle can be improved.
