Unveiling its first electric model for the upper mid-sized class, Volkswagen’s ID.7 comes with a plethora of features designed for optimal travel comfort. Among these is the optional ergoActive premium seat package, which has garnered prestigious certification from the German Campaign for Healthier Backs (AGR).
Engineered for Dynamic Comfort
The seats are the culmination of intensive collaborative efforts between Volkswagen engineers and a team of experts from AGR, consisting of orthopaedic specialists, sports scientists, and physiotherapists. Together, they developed a seat that uses 12 air cushions—two in the seat and 10 in the backrest—for precise pressure point massage. These air cushions serve to activate pelvic and spinal regions, preventing tension build-up and promoting better metabolic function in the spine, according to Ulrich Kuhnt, Chair of the German Association of Back Schools and consultant to AGR.
Personalization and Climate Control at Your Fingertips
Functionality doesn't stop at massage and posture correction. The ergoActive premium seats provide extensive customization through electric 12-way seat adjustment and a manual two-way seat depth setting. An intelligent memory function remembers your preferred settings. But what truly sets these seats apart is their dynamic air conditioning system, which adjusts temperature in the seat cushion and backrest separately. This enables the creation of an individually tailored climate, which can be controlled manually or set to automatic mode for optimum comfort.
By securing AGR certification, the ergoActive premium seats in the Volkswagen ID.7 not only set new benchmarks in luxury but also shine a spotlight on health-focused automotive design.
