Yes, but the memory seat function doesn't link to a key. My wife's Honda Odyssey does that - in fact the previous version did too. Open the door with the key in you pocket and it automagically figures out that the key is linked to driver 1 or driver 2 and positions the seat accordingly.
Having to stand there and press the memory button isn't that big of a deal, but hey if a $50 k mini van can do it, you'd think that they could find a way to make it happen in a $140 k luxury sedan. They could even have made it another $150 option and made some money doing it . . .

And for the memory button, to take place it's not ideal before take place to the car because the steering wheel goes down and it's a pain in the *** to sit for me because Because I have fighter's thighs :-)
Like you said, not a deal breaker but disappointing on a car of this price.

I will join the chorus of cursing the engineers every time I’m driving for those four months of the year. Then I will be celebrating the engineers for all the other stuff.

Once you have experienced a heated steering wheel, there's no going back. Wife's previous 530i had it and she will not buy another car without one. Mercedes doesn't offer this option and though Lexus offers it but only on the top and the bottom as the sides are wood DAH...

Every MB vehicle (not only the E's), which has an AMG steering wheel, cannot have it heated.....
Only non AMG steering wheels are heated...
I think MB had an over supply of non heated AMG steering wheels and are trying to use them up.
Obviously, there is not a technical reason why it cannot be heated.

Someone told me about that a long time ago. He to lives in warmer climates. I can only imagine how cold some places are in this country. I am up near Boston but if you go up to Maine, it is even colder.
Let me sum this up in one word. Ugh.
I will miss the summer.

My 2019 E63s has the AMG steering wheel and has the heated steering wheel option.

Yeah same prob. This drive unit is ****. Either no display(black) or showing messy ****ty image(the right side dynamic). And service department told me they had no idea. I was like wtf? They don't even know how to fix it
