Performance Seats Omission

I've recently been looking at new cars, in this case AMG saloons. I decided to spec an E63S and saw that part of the spec for driving assistance package is omission of performance seats. Why is this the case, is this only in the UK?

You can get both, there's a different code for driver assistance with perf seats (at least in the US). Confused me a ton at first too .

2019 E63s
Up here

In the great white north we can’t get performance seats either with the intelligent drive (distronic) Package. The only exception I saw was the edition 1 cars last fall. It’s weird and I can’t get a straight answer out of anyone here either as to why it’s this way. In the USA everything is piecemeal (options wise) compared to having everything packaged up here. Not sure if it’s that way in the UK...

The standard seat is more comfortable for long drives.
I look at cars with and without performance seats and really prefer the standard seat.

I love the perf seats, but honestly for most people I order the non perf seats.. nice they added it to 53 and GLC AMG's for 2019
