Random Ventilated Seat Question

[vancealot29]

Hey all. My wife is in the market for a three row SUV. Does anyone know if any of them have ventilated seats in the second row?

 

We live in FL and it's always hot, so just looking out for the kids (first world issue, I know).

 

It's hard to Google since the searches primarily bring back vented seats in the front.  I think I saw the Kia or Hyundai have them, but not a huge fan of those, even with their very strong reviews. 

 

Would love to stay in the GM family with the new Tahoe, but an Explorer/Expedition would work too, or even a German brand. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes, depends on the package of course. Sorry this is only showing heated in the 2nd row, let me check the GMC site.

Maybe not, but they do have AC throughout the roof from 2nd row on.

Order guide also shows heated available for second row -- but no mention of ventilated.  Even on Escalade ESV

 

Rear air seems to be standard.

We just bought a Hyundai Pallisade. Don’t knock it until you check it out.

We’ve had 4 Hyundai’s. The first 05 Elantra 3 generations have used it. My grandson is still driving it. I’ve drove as a person vehicle a 2010 Genesis coup and a 3 row Santa Fe. My wife daily drives a 2011 Genesis sedan. Her next one will be another one.

You can always add the cooling/heated option through a different vendor. Katzkin offers it.

Yeah no GM SUV has ventilated 2nd row seats. Very strange.

 

I bet we'll see them in the 2nd rows on the High Country and Denali (maybe AT4?) trims in the 2022 truck refreshes. So then maybe they will rollout on the 2023 SUVs in the 2nd row.

"Ventilated seats" sounds like a great option for a family stricken with flatuence, IBS or swamp butt.

Or lives in Texas, Louisiana,Mississippi, Georgia or any state it gets above say 80 and parks on anything other concrete. Or maybe concrete too. And of course has leather seats.

Bingo.  

 

Since most of the trucks for sale these days have gone to all-black interiors, this is even more important, IMO. It's the one feature I really regret not having in my RST. My next truck will for SURE have ventilated seats. Having a sweaty back just from driving to the office from lunch is not cool. (pun intended!)
