Default Driver seat

I found the seats uncomfortable in a long ride (more than 2 hours).

Mine has a cloth interior. do you have the same issue?

Love the seats. Very comfortable, even on long drives. It's a personal thing, almost entirely.

I've done a cross country trip with this car loaded to the point I had to have my seat closer than usual to the wheel and I've spent a couple 18 hour days (Seattle to LA and Albuquerque to Memphis) with nothing but gas stops. I have to say these are probably the best seats I've ever sat in for a cheaper car and I'm 6'2".

It did take some time to get the seat right but once it was dialed in, I've had zero complaints.

Cloth seats in an SE hatchback. No problems driving a distance at all.

Yep! The head restraint was a little uncomfortable at first but now I am used to it and find it to be just fine. It's a matter of making fine adjustments until you get it how you like it. Also just your body adjusting to the different padding/material.

When i forget to do my stretching exercises, my back and neck and shoulders get stiff and suddenly my car seats are no longer so comfortable!! In other words sometimes the problem is the human driving the car not the seats!!

I'm in the same boat as you. 2 hours is about the max I can handle in one sitting with these seats.

I've taken tons of long-distance trips as short as 1 hour and long as 12 hours with no comfort issues, and I have major back problems.
