Ford Vehicles with Heated/Cooled Seats

Automotive luxury and convenience have come a long way since Henry Ford pioneered the assembly line production technique in the early 1900s.

Today's modern Ford vehicles include everything from advanced touchscreen infotainment systems to leather seats, complete with both heating and cooling capabilities. These features used to only be available on luxury brands like Volvo, BMW, and Audi, but American manufacturers like Ford, Chevrolet, and Chrysler have been closing the luxury car gap for many years now. Japanese brands like Mazda, Nissan, Toyota, and Honda also offer heated and cooled seats across their lineup, depending on the trim level and model.

Trust us when we say there is nothing better than firing up your vehicle's climate control system on a hot day and having your seat cushion cool down along with the interior of your vehicle. And on a chilly day, warmed front seats are a nice luxury as well.

Let's dig into what seat heaters and cooled seats are and how they work.

What Are Heated/Cooled Seats?

Heated seats and cooled seats allow drivers and passengers to enjoy warm or cooled upholstery to match the environment provided by the climate control system. Although typically associated with leather seats, heated seats are available in both leather and cloth variants throughout the Ford lineup. To maximize driver comfort, heated and cooled car seats can be independently adjusted and have multiple levels of effectiveness for the hottest and coldest days here in the valley.

How Do Heated/Cooled Seats Work?

Heated Seats

Seat heating is accomplished with a heating element that runs through the bottom cushion and the backrest. Once drivers have fired up their Ford vehicle, they can turn on the seat heaters to match their needs. Due to clever engineering, seat heaters can run from warm all the way up to extremely warm. While some might want even warmer seats, Ford has designed heated states to be safe for nearly everyone to use while on the road for long periods of time. 

Cooled or Ventilated Seats

Cooled seats function like an air conditioning system for your seat. Thanks to a perforated leather interior and a powerful fan under each seat, cooled seats pull the heat away from the seat covers to help cool you down on hot days. Much like heated seats, cooled seats are adjustable to many different levels so all drivers can get comfortable, no matter what the temperature is outside.

Having heated and cooled seats on board ensures that drivers and passengers can select the right temperature for the right situation. Seats that offer both heating and cooling options use the perforated leather seating surface combined with a powerful and built-in heating element.

Which Ford Cars Have Heated/Cooled Seats?

From adventure-ready vehicles like the Bronco to track-focused sports cars like the Mustang, there are many Ford models that come with heated seats and/or cooled seats.

What Are the Benefits of Heated/Cooled Seats?

Heated and cooled seats have a variety of benefits, especially for those that live in areas where extreme weather can be part of daily life. Even if you live in areas where the weather is considered more temperate or ideal, heated and cooled seats make traveling easier and all around more pleasant. 

Ford designed the climate control system in their vehicles to work throughout this range of temperature swings efficiently, but it will always take a few minutes for the vehicle to warm up. When it's chilly outside, the heated seats can make waiting for the interior to completely heat up just a bit easier to deal with. 

On the flip side, cooled or ventilated seats work wonders to provide a feeling of coolness when the temperature outside is soaring. By evaporating sweat trapped between the seat cushion and your clothing, cooled seats can bring nearly instant relief on a swelteringly hot day. While your vehicle is cooling down via the climate control system, cooled seats can add to the overall comfort that feels luxurious. 

Those who suffer from back pain or nerve pain can also seriously benefit from heated seats. Although not as hot as a heating pad or similar device, the gentle warmth from a heated seat can go a long way to making those who suffer from pain feel a little more comfortable. This is especially true for long road trips where pain sufferers may be seated for several hours before getting up to stretch.
