I've found the seats in my 2019 X3 M40i are the worst seats I've had in a BMW. And I've driven BMWs since the mid-80s, so I know their seats. This is the first BMW where my back & butt hurt after an hour or so of driving. And it was consistent (I make a 1.5 hour hwy drive twice a week)--every time.
I ended up buying a seat cushion, which has made it tolerable, but it's a wonky kludge.
I've owned 3, 5, X5, and now an X3, over 35+ years. All new, almost all with sports package and do-everything every-which-way premium seats. And obviously I loved them, as I keep coming back (probably 15 BMWs over this time frame, between wife & I). But between this, and the ubiquitous lack of road feel (gone downhill since 2000s), it will be my last. My wife, also a BMW driver, but only since 2000, recently traded her X5 for a Cayenne. Holy Moly, is that a car! Road feel like the BMWs of the 1980s/1990s, and a great seat.
