They function as designed and marketed. (IIRC) These are advertised as "climatised" front seats w/ heating and ventilation not "air conditioned".

Given Range Rover's poor reliability rep, I'll happily make the sacrifice myself.

I agree I was quite disappointed over the last 15 years that the seats are only ventilated instead of air conditioned but they do a far better job at making sure I never exit the vehicle with a sweat/damp spot on my shirt or **** crack. My wife’s car has very cold ac seats and neither one of us can stand them for more than a few minutes.

It's no worse than some plain Jane MB products or other Euro automakers but far better than what is being pumped out of Volvo or Tesla at the moment.

Ok but let's leave Tesla out of this...I'm referring to car companies that don't have an assembly line in a parking lot
