It says that you cannot order with option code 494, which is Heated Seats. However, does the ventilated seats come with heated seats or you have to order the cold weather package? Thanks!

Ventilated seats don't come with heated elements. But you can order the CWP and get both heated elements and ventilated seats.

A follow-up question...

Do ventilated comfort seats come with heating as standard?

I think it comes with the heated seats but you can order the CWP as well.

Take a look at the following document (and see what it says next to the ventilated seats option):

Thanks. It does say they are heated on the US option sheet; one would presume that Europe is the same.
I'll check with my dealer when I order the car to make sure of that.

which is why I said I would double-check with a dealer here...
I am quite aware there there are differences between regional specs.

Indeed. That's why I was querying the presumption (presume) that Europe would have the same spec. The process of checking with the dealer is very sensible for the reasons you give.

AB?

In the US, it says that you cannot order Heated Seats. However, it does not say that HS are standard equipment. Did anyone on here not order the CWP when they ordered their car?

As far as the country specific issue, I would never presume that something for the US is the same everywhere else and vice versa. Usually, there are so many differences that it's safer to assume that things are different...
