Active side support

Hi everyone
I finally recently got my GLS450, replacing my 2011 GL450. It's a huge difference between these two, Looks like I almost skipped the whole generation)))
Ordered it its multicontour seats, but noticed that it's missing the active side support on thee turns, do you guys have the same? The manual says it has this option. Do you think it will be available with any update?

You can adjust the side bolsters from the new COMAND screen but they are not "Active". To my knowledge there was never an "Active Bolster" option for the GL or the GLS, including the AMG variants.

The multi-contour seat on my 2012 E350 has it but those on my 2017
GLS450 don't. Wish it did.

A gaggle of MB's
Mercedes SUV's don't have active-contour/side-bolster... sedans and coupe can - not MB SUV's
