Hello all. I have been looking at the 2016 Explorer Limited. My wife and I went by a dealership on one Sunday and found a few unlocked 2016 models that we were able to look at. One of the Limited had the standard 300A package with the 10-way power bucket seats and the other was equipped with the 301A package that has the multicontour bucket seats with Active Motion. I noticed that the 301A seats have a massage feature that the 300A package does not. When sitting in the seats the lower back portion of the 300A package seats felt more comfortable and the one with the 301A package felt more stiff and uncomfortable in the lower back area.
The 300A seat you could adjust the lumbar using the circle on the side of the seat, but the 301A package seats you could not. I am not sure if the one with the 301A package is just not adjustable unless the car is on or if it is more stiff because of the massage feature and equipment that it has inside. I called Ford and they suggested I search the Internet. I realize the 2016 models are slowly hitting the lot, but if anyone has any knowledge on if the actual seats are different or not I would appreciate it.
