The premium seats should have the extendable thigh support unless for some reason they are different than the seats in the M Sport trim, as it definitely has them.

That's good news at least. Even the US website photos are confusing. I know we won't be getting the sliding rear seats, but if you look in the 360 interior shots when configuring the car, I notice the rear seats still have rails to slide on

when I went on the test drive yesterday, the seats were the standard seats and they definitely didn't have lumbar support buttons next to the seat controls.
not really a problem for me, since I never use it... however, every member of my family seems to love using lumbar support. they'll just have to get little lumbar support pillows... the salesperson said that the M Sports package sport seats also didn't have lumber support in them, although she didn't seem very sure about that. I really do NOT want M Sport package, but if those sport seats have lumbar support, I guess I'll have to order it... need to find a dealer that has X1 with M Sport package to confirm. |

I really hate reading the owner's manual... why do they think it's a good idea to show us options that they do not even offer in the US? I want a censored/redacted manual that cover up all these unavailable options! (below is on page 96 of the owner's manual for the X1, downloaded from BMW USA website after entering X1 VIN#) Last edited by bluecrabby; 11-06-2022 at 02:59 PM.. |

I guess it'll be a while before BMW catches up.... IMHO, lumbar support should be standard in every car, not just BMWs. |

I'm holding out hope, against all odds, the sport seats I ordered were built with lumbar and massage components and can be activated in the future. But I'm a little less hopeful now that I don't think the dials for these things are even on the side of the seats. Big disappointment.

It is by far the best massage seat in any car/SUV around $50k or under. In fact, I think it's almost as comfortable as the massage seat in the Mercedes S580 that my friend has. I sat in one on a 4-hour trip from NYC to DC.... I was so relaxed by the massage seat, I had the best nap ever in a moving vehicle. When we reached the hotel outside of DC, I did not want to get out... pressed the massage function and sat in the hotel garage for another half an hour. It was even adjustable by using the display on the dash. |

If you look at 5:36 in this video, this US production model with MSport doesn't have lumbar support.
