I think people will always appreciate genuinely passionate and deeply experienced folk talking about the craft. Carl is an EXTREMELY GOOD addition to the team! love the content!
I never knew what went into making seats or door liners or dash materials until listening to Carl, so thanks! Although Carl is wrong about one thing. The headrest is not a headrest, it's a head restraint which is there to prevent whiplash during a crash.
One of the less expensive options to spread the pressure to the legs, is to have a deeper / bucket like seat or tilt the sit in a more upper position to support the back of your knee. If your bottom sits lower with 2/4 cm, the rest of the seat will support your legs too and spread pressure on bottom + legs will decrease the overall pressure giving more overall comfort, leaving enough head room for taller persons - just look at Carl's torsos height comparing with you Sandy - and will increase the leg room.
I have zero knowledge in vehicle assembly and no business watching these teardowns. Yet I'm 20 minutes in and enjoying watching, learning stuff. Speaks a lot about Sandy and the quality of his team
Wow, Carl is an amazing speaker'.....clear and precise.....I never thought there was that much complexity to a seat....watched the whole video and enjoyed every minute....thanks
This seat isn’t not even close to be the most complicated, look at Mercedes’ Benz sclass seats, it’s a masterpiece of engineering on a whole new level.
Holy Crap… Carl somehow did even better this time around. Honestly, he really brings a great new dimension to the crew and show overall. Again, brilliant hire Sandy!
This was a PHENOMENAL explainer video. Thank you Carl for explaining everything so thoroughly with the assembly process, differences in components, and the WHY they might do one versus the other. Excellent job!
Wow. I'm impressed with Carl's knowledge and clear concise presentation. Who would think seats would be so interesting. I liked the little mfg./cost analysis at the end too.
It's quite possibly that "Tesla" (employees) watch Munro Live, and the culture within Tesla allows those employees to both suggest and escalate logical suggestions (hopefully with due credit)
Sandy and Co are engineers, so is Elon, Elon loves engineering and he loves enabling fellow engineers. He keeps the MBA bean counters the right distance away from the engineers so they can actually do real engineering which actually saves the bean counters from to do alot unnessacary work
@@brettmciver432 You are spot on there. I work for a large American jetliner manufacturer and have watched in dismay and sorrow as the bean counters have gutted the engineering and manufacturing principles that created what was once the envy of the world.
Carl Crittenden is an excellent communicator...the best I have seen on your Munro Live. His presence, his moves and is formulation of problems and solutions, his obvious expertise make the clip informative and interesting. BRAVO 🙏
FINALLY! I get to hear someone talking about how the distance between the back of our heads and the headrest should be minimized. I worked in PT clinics for a few years and I saw the effects of whiplash injuries on people all the time. I keep the back of my seat as vertical as possible such that the back of my head is as close to touching the headrest as possible. Yeah I'm not one of the cool-kids laying way back and driving with one extended arm barely able to reach the steering wheel, but hopefully this keeps me out of the doctor's or chiropractor's office if some texting-while-driving-idiot hits me from behind at a stop light.
I was driving a 2 door 1990 Datson and was rear ended at a toll booth in New Jersey when the driver behind me was searching for a quarter she dropped on the floor. My car was totalled and I went to PT 2x/week for 5 months. I ALWAYS keep my head against the headrest when stopped.
The Citroen SM of the '70s is the only car I have seen with an adjustable head RESTRAINT. I have always wondered why, with the most important part of the human body, seat designers could be so casual.
Grand entrance with the CyberQuad Sandy. I really learned a lot from Carl about seats today and he literally knows his stuff. Thanks to the Munroe Live team for putting this together
There is someone who's not recognized enough (if ever) : the one holding the camera! It's not so easy to follow such a presentation, zoom, unzoom, move around the table, all kept fluid and natural. That said, I've never been so immersed in a car seat analysis. That's brilliant!
This guy f....g exceptional , another jewel in the crown of Munrow & Associates. Carl , is afraid he is boring , never met somebody whom is capable to speak so engaging about "just a seat" , No Carl you are not boring , for 99.999% of the people a seat is just a seat , and you are capable to speak about a subject and make it come alive and when you finish ( after 22 min) you did something special , you transferred some of your knowledge to a crowd who didn't even know the were thirsting for it. You have a gift and never ever let somebody tell you otherwise. Gr Gerard
@13:13 I love this. It is *_so_*_ Inside Baseball._ I have never been shown what goes into crafting a seat before in such exquisite, excruciating detail before. Thank you *Carl.*
*I HAVE BEEN* "occupant out of position" I was adjusting the radio when I crashed [not paying attention] and that slight shift in position allowed me to rotate around the seat belt and my head hit the windscreen. It was a low-speed cash so it was not a big issue - but it's amazing - just leaning forward and towards the centre of the car 6" can mean the difference between being restrained and not
@@b4804514 - I was really shocked, but the seat belt moving just off the top of your shoulder as you lean forwards to mess with a centre mounted radio means it does not catch your upper body and the momentum PIVOTS you out of the upper part of the seat belt, then it grabs you around your stomach and you headbutt the windscreen.
I love the vast reserve of knowledge that Carl has about interior design and manufacturing. This was a great video and an enlightening exploration of seat design.
Is it me or this was all done in one cut , super impressive being able to do that with the precision he did. Glad he join Munroe , i appreciate the episode more and more each time
Great job explaining the complexity of something viewed by the vehicle buyer as a simple seat. So much talent and hard work goes into design and building of a modern automobile. Let’s keep that talent and skill.
What an excellent presentation, well spoken with a nice pace and great use of the parts. Sandy won’t be speaking about seats very often in the future I’m sure.
Thank you Carl, facinating stuff after 30 years servicing/modifying what Was Germany’s finest😢 I saw the writing on the wall in 2012, when 10 of my SoCal customers switched to Tesla. Can’t imagine selling an ICE repair facility now😎
Wow. What an information-rich journey. Didn’t have any idea there was that much thought into seat development. Carl was efficient, clear, and left me wanting more. Pretty darn cool for a video on seat tech.
Carl, I share your 95 percentile joys. Th I s is exactly why the Cybertruck is the only Tesla I will likely ever own. The X is close but still subspec to my needs. Thanks for the cogent talk.
Carl, you made my butt so complicated now. Whenever I sit in my car I'll be thinking all of the science that went into it.. Thank you for such an in-depth analysis of seats! You Rock!
Spend months of 24 hour days in the 3 seats, I want one for my office at home now, they are very comfy at every imaginable angle, from watching youtube to sleeping to spirited driving. the adjustable angle of the base of the - front - seat (closing the gap/anti sub) is the best I've sat in
I have a 2022 Model 3 P. I'm larger like you are Carl. The seats felt nice for the first few minutes but were very painful on longer drives. I was forced to modify, on my own, my seat bottom cushion (too narrow and too thin) and the headrest (with it's terrible steeply forward angle for a taller guy). I'm now very happy with the self-modified seats and therefore happy to drive the car long distances. Nice video. I just met Sandy this weekend in Florida, great guy in person. Thank you. George Borrelli, Crystal River, Florida.
Another great video, thank you! One thing I was hoping to see was the implementation of the in-seat mics supporting the active road noise reduction feature. Hopefully this is covered in another video, perhaps on the audio system?
Ah so that's what it is. I noticed an A surface parting line on the inner trim panel of the tailgate on my Odyssey. It's around the automatic close button. I'm learning so much info with these videos!
Where is the functional integration in all of that!? It doesn’t even offer all the features that a similar priced vehicle offers on their seats. Other manufacturers even have sockets for tablet/smartphone attachment, bolsters that hugs you when going fast around a corner, amazing massage and much more.
@@markplott4820 wrong, in tesla all those features are not integrated into the rear of the front seats and are definitely not the most ergonomic. You can directly connect your tablet on the rear seat of a bmw and plug to the seat without the need to move your head.
I sat in one of those seats for three days and it was comfortable but i never actually saw it. Carl displayed it and explained it so that i could understand its very cool design. It always is helpful to find an instructor to whom the subject matter is meaningful in order to really see the thing.
Thank you for taking time to discuss the engineering and manufacturability of the seats. It is important education to show how much engineering art and science have to go up front into even outwardly straight forward appearing components of automobiles (or almost any manufactured product to be true). This is something I work to get my students to appreciate. Stuff doesn’t just happen, people have to design it. Creative design is hard work.
@@markplott4820 what does that have to do with the seats!? It’s not even close to a great seat compared to other manufacturers, Mercedes’ has the only and best seats in the industry with tons of features.
What happens with customers who already bought the plaid? Does Tesla fix these problems on their vehicles? I really hope so. I can't believe this seating configuration made it out the factory in the first place. Looks pretty uncomfortable.
Omg! Another home run from Carl! I would not even begin to imagine how many thing, components, ways to assemble, decisions made, ways to create quality perception, etc come together in a seat! And you make it super interesting fluid, knowledgeable, clean and consice. I would have seen another 20 minutes if you put that in this video.
Carl, aka ‘The Seat Whisperer’. Great video and you did a much better job of talking to and looking at the camera. Can’t wait to see what Sandy puts you up to next.
Its kinda sad to see you starting to step down Sandy, but i see that you deserve to have more Sandytime u know? Im happy that Carl is confident to continue this amazing journey that Munro has taken and will continue on for a long long time. Let us all pay homage to an absolute LEGEND in the automotive industry, Thank you for all your efforts and contributions Mr. Sandy Munro. I for one am raising my coldsnack for you in tribute Sandy. go get em Sandy, have fun you titan
Great lecture and very educational - the thought process and all the important industrial design decisions in a humble car seat is not something I have appreciated. Bravo
You need to hire me. I'm not an engineer, in not an American citizen. I can however sit in a seat. Also these type of videos are very relaxing, very ASMR for me. Good job Carl, from the UK.
@@Not_An_Alien wouldn't that cause whip lash in a collision because the support is on your neck, where it is not supposed to be? I think anyone can buy an aftermarket pillow support to modify the seat to their comfort.
Carl is obviously an expert in seat and a welcome member of your team. I did find it interesting that Michigan seems so far way. Sandy you and Carl should get on a plane to SJC and take a short drive up to Kato Rd. about a mile south of the main plant and visit the seat plant. I'm sure that bartering with your knowledge they will provide you with an invitation and tour of the plant. Keep up the great work.
I like the map pockets on the front seat backs on my model Y. Good place to stow the ( legally mandatory) warning vests for the rear passengers. Good feature!
Amazing video Carl. Not boring at all. Although I typically would not have any interest in analyzing a car seat, the way you presented the safety aspect was an eye opener, I will never be able to see a seat the same way. And I'll be watching how my family sits down in them. Id' like to see if you can do an analysis (tear down) of other cars' seats, Mach-E, Ioniq 5, or others. Looking at the comparisons between manufacturers are the best part! Also putting them in a side by side for comparison on a table would be awesome.
love this video!! I understand these are super pricy to make but that's the kind of videos that brought me to this channel. I would have taken more, this was absolutely not boring ;)
I think people will always appreciate genuinely passionate and deeply experienced folk talking about the craft. Carl is an EXTREMELY GOOD addition to the team! love the content!

One of the less expensive options to spread the pressure to the legs, is to have a deeper / bucket like seat or tilt the sit in a more upper position to support the back of your knee.

Your comment hit as true as Carls remarks!
nah
If you can make talking about how a seat is made and functions, actually exciting to watch, you definitely have a gift.
Lol… it’s boring to watch!
Yeah but are the seats comfortable?
@@ken-mb5cp Sandy had called it most comfortable front seat (or similar) during the road trip.
Hey, this is the best seat explanation I have ever seen
Carl is an impressive addition to the team! He did a great job explaining what might otherwise be a rather dull topic. Thank you Carl...
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can't believe how interesting he made this. He knows a LOT about seats.
Munro Live is like a "symphony" of automotive knowledge. I love how Sandy is letting his orchestra technicians do solos and perform for the audience!

I prefer adjustable headrests, including not only vertical adjustment, but horizontal and angular adjustment as well.
As a bus driver, I concur. The ability to put the headrest in the crook of my neck lets the seat absorb all that neck compression on bumpy roads.

Id' like to see if you can do an analysis (tear down) of other cars' seats, Mach-E, Ioniq 5, or others. Looking at the comparisons between manufacturers are the best part! Also putting them in a side by side for comparison on a table would be awesome.
love this video!! I understand these are super pricy to make but that's the kind of videos that brought me to this channel.
I would have taken more, this was absolutely not boring ;)
TESLA cam make a small Fortune, selling it's Motors, battery pack, seats & more to OEM's.
