G20 BMW 3-Series Forum - View Single Post - G20 leather seats hot even on moderately warm days

Cars I've previously driven with leather seats have occasionally made me feel uncomfortably warm on very hot days, but the G20 leather seats make me feel hot, even on moderately warm days when temperatures are in the 70s.

I don't know if it's the the shape of the G20 seat cushions that causes this, or if it's the way BMW processes and seals the leather. Whatever the cause, it's preventing me from ordering a new M340.

I wish BMW sold their vehicles here with premium cloth seats as I believe they do in Europe, rather than limiting choices to non-breathable SensaTec or leather.

Has anyone else noticed this when driving the new 3 Series?
