Rear Seat Comfort

They both drive Toyotas (Rav4 and Highlander) for comparison, and they did appreciate the power rear reclining feature on the X5.

I'd imagine maybe some reworking of the internals maybe to improve comfort?

I'm maybe a bit larger than your in-laws; 6'2", ~230lbs.

But you have power recline? That isn't a feature on mine; didn't even realize that was available! The seat back folds down for cargo and that's about it. Only one position when not folded down. I wonder if there is something different in between the ones with & without recline...
