You asked. We listened.
The much cooler sibling to our most popular Vario F and Vario F XXL seat models has just arrived.
The Klima joins the Vario F and Vario F XXL, our most popular seats, with one addition that changes how they feel on a long drive: active ventilation.
Integrated fans in the seat bottom and backrest keep air moving through the seat, so the surfaces you touch stay cool however high the temperature climbs. No damp backs, no seats that cling.
If you loved our Vario F and Vario F XXL models, you’re in for a treat. The Klima is all about taking your comfort to a whole new level, especially on those long drives.
Ever feel like you’re melting into your seat on a long and hot journey? Its active ventilation system has integrated fans in the seat bottom and backrest that keep the air flowing, so you stay cool and comfortable no matter how high the temperature climbs. No more sweaty backs or sticky seats—just cool comfort.
The Klima Warms, Too
When the season turns, integrated heating does the opposite work, warming the seat on cold mornings. It's built to serve the whole year rather than half of it.
Ergonomics First
Beneath the ventilation, the Klima is every bit a Vario: an orthopedic shape that follows the natural curve of the spine, whether the road ahead is open highway or stop-and-go traffic.
Adjusted to Every Driver
With 14-way adjustability, finding the right position is never a compromise, only a matter of adjustment. Tall, short or anywhere between, the seat fits the driver rather than the average.
Built to Last
Hand-built in Germany from materials chosen for the long term, the Klima is made to be adjusted once and enjoyed for years.

Guter Sitz, gute Fahrt (good seat, good ride).
Cool, Composed, Comfortable
The Klima designation marks the one addition that sets this seat apart: integrated fans in both the seat back and seat bottom that circulate air directly through the seat itself, keeping the driver cool and composed even on the hottest days. It's a seat built to work in both directions, warming when the drive calls for it and drawing heat away when it doesn't, so overheating and perspiration never enter the equation.
Advanced Active Ventilation
Most seats treat heat as a one-way problem, adding warmth without ever addressing the opposite. The Klima answers both sides of it, drawing air through the seat back and seat bottom the moment the cabin starts working against the driver rather than for them. It's comfort engineered for the whole range of conditions a real drive puts in front of you, not just the cold ones.
Beneath that, the Vario F Klima is still every bit a Vario F. It shares its backrest shape with the Traveler, and what sets the Vario apart is everything beneath that shape: a seat so thoroughly adjustable that finding your ideal position isn't a matter of compromise, it's simply a matter of adjustment. Fourteen ways of it, each one built to close the gap between a good seat and one that fits you specifically.
14-Way Adjustability
The entire lower cushion moves in and out across a 4" range, so the driver with the shortest thighs and the driver with the longest both arrive at the same result: full support, with nothing cutting in and nothing left unsupported.
The upper bolsters, which carry the sides of the torso through every corner, adjust in and out as well, tightening or opening to match the body they're holding rather than asking the body to adapt to them.
Every Vario carries our 4-way lumbar support, adjustable in both intensity and height, so relief lands exactly where the back needs it rather than wherever the seat happens to place it. It's the difference between a seat that supports the spine and one that merely sits behind it.
A release mechanism lets the backrest hinge forward on command, practical access built into a seat that never stops thinking about the driver first.
Heat and a seat back map pocket come standard, comfort and convenience built in rather than offered as an afterthought.
The result is a seat built to disappear beneath you, adjusted once and forgotten, precisely because it was adjusted correctly, comfortable in any season the road puts in front of it.

Built Tall, Kept Cool
The Klima designation marks the one addition that sets this seat apart: integrated fans in both the seat back and seat bottom that circulate air directly through the seat itself, keeping the driver cool and composed even on the hottest days. It's a seat built to work in both directions, warming when the drive calls for it and drawing heat away when it doesn't, so overheating and perspiration never enter the equation.

It's comfort engineered for the whole range of conditions a real drive puts in front of you, not just the cold ones.
This particular Klima carries the XXL backrest as well, built for those over 6' tall, or anyone with a particularly long torso, drivers the standard backrest was never quite sized for. The design stays otherwise identical, a 3" taller backrest on the same seat, so nothing about the fit, feel, or adjustability changes, only the room to sit properly.
Those extra three inches matter more than they might suggest. A backrest sized short for a taller torso leaves the shoulders and upper back unsupported right where fatigue sets in first, forcing the spine to do work the seat should be doing instead. The XXL closes that gap, carrying support all the way up the back so a taller driver gets the same full-length contact and stability a shorter driver already takes for granted, hours into a drive without the strain a standard backrest would eventually ask them to absorb.
Beneath both of those additions, the Vario F XXL Klima is still every bit a Vario F. It shares its backrest shape with the Traveler, and what sets the Vario apart is everything beneath that shape: a seat so thoroughly adjustable that finding your ideal position isn't a matter of compromise, it's simply a matter of adjustment.
