Sports-seat support, without climbing over a high cushion bolster.
The Cross Sportster CS keeps the supportive backrest and shoulders of a sports seat, with a flatter cushion that makes getting in and out easier. It is a particularly useful shape for a higher driving position or a car you climb into several times a day. Our specification includes both heating and a side airbag, with four trim choices.
Why the seat shape matters
The flatter cushion makes the Cross easier to slide across as you enter or leave. It still has pronounced backrest and shoulder support, so you keep the upper-body hold that makes a sports seat appealing. Choose it when easy access matters as much as support once you are seated.
Choose your upholstery
Ambla with Dinamica: choose this if you like a soft, suede-feel centre and a more textured sports-seat look. Ambla is durable, easy-care synthetic leather around the sides; Dinamica is the breathable microfibre upholstery in the centre. Black keeps the finish understated, while red or silver gives your interior more contrast.
Full black leather: choose this for the natural leather feel and a consistent leather finish across the seat upholstery. It is a good match if you want your new seats to complement a leather-trimmed cabin. This changes the upholstery; the seat shape, heating and side airbag are the same.
Ambla with black, red or silver Dinamica costs GBP 2,714 per seat. Full black leather costs GBP 3,777, so the GBP 1,063 premium buys the leather finish. All four versions include heating and the side airbag.

What you get
One heated RECARO Cross Sportster CS seat in the selected trim.
Integrated side airbag.
Reclining backrest, integral headrest and sports-seat shoulder support.
Flatter seat cushion for easier entry and exit.
A vehicle-specific baseframe and installation are separate. The combined 1/2 part reference covers handed versions, not a pair of seats.
Fitting it to your car
The mounting frame, chosen side and airbag installation must match the vehicle. Tell us the car and whether you need the driver or passenger seat so we can identify the appropriate setup. The seat is designed for suitable three-point belts and road-use four-point belt installations; the belt and anchorage arrangement still need to be approved for the car.
For Ambla, use a soft cloth with a gentle soap solution, wipe away the residue and dry the surface. Brush or vacuum the Dinamica gently, then use a slightly damp white cloth when needed. Avoid vigorous rubbing or pouring cleaner directly onto the fabric.
For full leather, remove dust with a soft cloth and use a suitable leather-care product, testing a hidden area first. Whichever trim you choose, avoid dragging clothing or bags across the cushion bolsters as you get in and out.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Sportster and Cross Sportster?
The Cross has a much flatter cushion for easier entry and exit. The Sportster has more pronounced cushion bolsters. Both provide shaped backrest and shoulder support.
Does the starting price include heating and the airbag?
Yes. Both are included in every trim offered here. The higher full-leather price is an upholstery upgrade.
Is this a pair?
No. The price is for one seat. The 1/2 reference covers handed versions; let us know which side you are fitting.
Is the mounting frame included?
No. You need a compatible vehicle-specific baseframe, supplied separately, plus an appropriate electrical and airbag installation.
Can I adjust the backrest?
Yes. The backrest reclines, so you can set the driving position. This is not a fixed-back competition bucket seat.
Is Ambla real leather?
No. Ambla is synthetic leather, paired here with Dinamica suede-feel microfibre. Choose the full black leather option if you want genuine leather upholstery.
