Adient Unveils Breakthrough Innovation ModuGo Seat

PLYMOUTH, Mich., August 25, 2025 – Adient, a global leader in automotive seating, announces its latest breakthrough product, the ModuGo seat. This solution redefines how car seats are designed, manufactured and experienced.
Inspired by the flexibility of building blocks, ModuGo enables automakers to achieve higher efficiency and lower cost while delivering a highly customizable, adaptive and comfortable experience for end-users through a modular design that enables highly agile product development and manufacturing.
Transforming manufacturing with modular design
The manufacturing of traditional car seats relies on complex and integrated structures that are labor-intensive. ModuGo revolutionizes this approach with a modular design that:
- Enhances assembly efficiency by 36.3% compared to conventional JIT models
- Simplifies production workflows, reducing total processes by 34%
- Increases output from 50 JPH to 78 JPH using the same workforce
- Shortens production line length by 72%, delivering significant savings in floor space
At the heart of ModuGo is Adient’s “one base, multi-use” platform philosophy. By simply swapping baseplates and modules, Adient and its customers can rapidly configure seat designs and functionalities tailored to different vehicle models, reducing development time and cost while maximizing flexibility.
Customization for a Tailored Driving Experience
ModuGo elevates conventional seat design to the next level, enabling automakers to create unique seats that reflect their brand images and the styles of different end-users. Built on Adient’s globally recognized Ultrathin base and lightweight frame technology, ModuGo supports full customization across:
- Structural zoning and styling
- Material and color selection
- Smart features including heating, ventilation and massage
The Ultrathin base not only enhances cabin space and aesthetics but is made from 100% recyclable materials, reinforcing Adient’s commitment to sustainability and a healthier in-cabin environment.

Adaptive Support Zones for Next-Level Comfort
ModuGo’s adaptive support mechanism is engineered for dynamic comfort. Its modular layout aligns with the body’s muscular structure, especially in the lumbar and back zones, allowing real-time adjustments that respond to driver / passenger movement.
The seat also features an open-zoned spinal support area that enhances lateral muscle support while relieving pressure along the spine. This design not only improves long-distance comfort but also reflects a deeper commitment to occupant well-being.
The debut of ModuGo marks a new chapter in the automotive seating industry. It reflects Adient’s forward-thinking vision of mobility and the future relationship between people and vehicles – where seats are not just functional, but a critical part of customizable in-car living space.
In an era of smartification and personalized mobility for the automotive industry, Adient’s ModuGo seat equips automakers with cutting-edge innovation while delivering revolutionary comfort and customization to end-users.
