TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Cadillac CTS

2011 Cadillac CTS Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
2012 The optional Recaro seats are a must despite their $3,400 price, as they provide power-adjustable side bolsters that provide far better lateral support than the standard seats. But the Recaro seats aren't very comfortable, with overly firm bulges here and there. Though the lumbar support can be power-adjusted vertically as well as in-and-out, I couldn't find any position where it was comfortable and ended up adjusting it for minimum intrusiveness. see full Cadillac CTS review
