Whatever sort of car you are driving, it’s always preferable that the seats are comfortable and are positioned well for the driver. This is very important for posture related to back aches resulting in sitting at a certain position for a long time. But certainly not all cars comes with this convenience, some cars nowadays, including premium brand models and family cars in higher trims achieve a high standard for comfort and convenience thanks to the use of what’s called memory seating. But what exactly is memory seating and how does it work?
How memory seating works
A memory seat is essentially an electrically-adjustable car seat which can be moved into pre-set positions at the push of a button. While a traditional electric car seat already allows the driver to adjust its position and height to a comfortable position, it’s something the user would likely have to frequently readjust if they share the car with another driver. Some electric car seats can offer a huge number of adjustments, which means that getting the seat back into its sweet spot can end up proving time consuming and a bit annoying.
A memory seat can remove this hassle by allowing the user to memorize the position the seat is currently in, via a series of nearby buttons. The buttons are usually found on the driver’s door or on an area of the centre console near the driver’s door. Cars with memory seating can usually keep two saved seating positions, though some can keep as many as three.
Health benefits of memory seating
With longer commutes and more time spent in vehicles, drivers suffering from Arthritis and other joint or back related diseases gains a lot of benefits from memory seating. Pre-set adjustable driver and passenger seats help you to stay comfortable behind the wheel reducing such problems.
