Cooled seats?

KaBoom1701 · 01-12-2016, 05:50 PM

I know it's winter still in most places but I don't hear any comments on the cooled seats that the 6th Gen has...

Anybody try these out yet?

Are they A/C cooled or just some fan blowing on your butts?

Fan blowing air through the perforations. Feels nice.

Fans, feels as cold as A/C when on for more than a few minutes. Not sure how much different it will be when it's 90+ outside tho

To get it to work well you need to set your vents so that they're open below, and above.....

Works great and quickly. We had an unusually warm December and I got to try them out.

Took about 30 seconds to feel it, but man it works great! Cools your lower back & butt off quickly.

Yes I did a few times, a couple of weeks ago when it was in the 70's here for a while, they work nice. I had them on another vehicle before! I like them, especially in summers in the south!

Anyone who had never used them before, it feels strange the first time, but you become used to them, they are real nice!

I was able to try out my ventilated seats before winter hit. I give them a big thumbs up for keeping my butt nice and cool.

Definitely a great way to fight swass when it's hot outside.

These are really nice on a long trip. On the 2016 can you turn on the heated seats AND the ventilation "cooling" at the same time?

Works very well. normally I never drive with a jacket on as my back get super hot, cooled seats fixed that. I can feel it through my jeans and leather. California Summers are not longer going top be annoying in this car

Well... You can control the individual seats. But you can't have heat and cooling going at the same time on the same chair. One or the other can be selected on each front passenger seat.
