Power seats are available as a factory installed option. They are available for both the driver's and passenger sides.

Three settings can be stored for the seat using the memory buttons.

The control module, which is positioned under the seat cushion, controls four different motors. Three of the motors are positioned under the seat. The fourth motor is in the backrest.

The control module and memory receives data about the seat position via signals from the four position sensors. This consists of potentiometers which drive a worm gear on each motor output shaft.
