What has the experience been with the R2 rear seats? I'm not talking leg room, rather comfort.

The backrest angle is not adjustable and I found it too far reclined. Also they do not slide forward/backward. (Our Ioniq5 beats them on both counts.) Backbreaker but not a dealbreaker for me, I'll be up front. 😉

Zero adjustment whatsoever? What is this, a penalty box?

Hope I'm remembering correctly, I'm sure someone will correct me if not. No adjustability that I recall, but the 40/20/40 split outweighs that IMO (assuming I never have to sit there). 40/20/40: more than a great idea, it oughta be the law.

I wonder if a clip could be made to push the seat forward a bit while still securely attaching to the anchor point? Such a clip might be too bulky though, and end up tilting the seat too far forward.
