RECARO Dynamic Sportster CS Nürburgring Limited Edition Seat

The RECARO Dynamic Sportster CS Nürburgring Limited Edition is a rare, performance-focused evolution of the iconic Sportster CS, limited to just 999 units worldwide. Designed to merge the precision of a true racing shell with the comfort and usability of a premium sports seat, this exclusive model delivers exceptional lateral support, a striking motorsport aesthetic, and the dynamic response required for road and track driving alike. Crafted with unique design elements that pay tribute to the legendary circuit, the Nürburgring Edition stands as a pinnacle of RECARO engineering and exclusivity, built for drivers who demand uncompromising performance and standout style in equal measure.

World Premier at the Nürburgring

• RECARO chose the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring as the global debut location for its new Nürburgring Limited Edition, presenting it to motorsport fans from around the world. The launch took place in the Ring Boulevard, where the RECARO Sportster CS Nürburgring Edition was showcased both at the RECARO stand and in tuning icon Sidney Hoffmann’s display car. RECARO also invited 120 registered participants to experience the full circuit virtually in a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup simulator, with the top performer earning a professional hot lap around the Nordschleife.

A Unique Driving Experience – Even on the Road Through “Green Hell”

• RECARO traces its heritage to Wilhelm Reutter, who founded his coachbuilding shop in 1906, and whose passion for custom mobility lives on through the brand’s name and philosophy. RECARO focuses on enhancing safety, comfort, and control for drivers while channeling its deep motorsport DNA. Endurance races such as the Nürburgring 24 Hours, where drivers cover roughly 1,000km, embody the continual pursuit of improvement that inspires RECARO engineering. Seats like the Sportster CS demonstrate the brand’s commitment to innovation, premium materials, craftsmanship, and dynamic performance. The Nürburgring Edition, in particular, provides exceptional lateral and shoulder support for a thrilling yet controlled driving experience, even on the road through the famed Green Hell.

Uncompromising Performance Meets Perfect Design

• RECARO presents the Sportster CS Nürburgring Edition as a special model strictly limited to 999 units worldwide, offering a combination of racing-shell performance and sports-seat comfort unmatched in its class. Designed for high-performance vehicles on both road and track, the Nürburgring Edition delivers a uniquely dynamic ride shaped by RECARO’s motorsport expertise.
  • Body Support:
    • RECARO performance seats such as the Sportster CS significantly influence lap times by stabilizing the body during aggressive driving. Their supportive structures, sculpted bolsters, and firm upholstery resist lateral forces and allow the driver to maintain precise control. The Sportster CS, including the Nürburgring Edition, offers outstanding shoulder support, targeted lateral stability in the cushion, and firm padding for crisp feedback from the road. This design ensures a controlled, connected driving experience that enhances vehicle response.
    • RECARO emphasizes that optimal seating posture is critical for sharp reactions and secure vehicle control. The brand designs its seats to support the body in a concentrated driving position, combining a sturdy metal base, ultra-thin reinforced polymer backrest, and available side airbag to improve safety and stability.
  • Comfort & Ergonomics:
    • The lightweight structure of the Sportster CS reflects RECARO’s ergonomic philosophy, expressed through the design principle “Form follows Human.” Firm padding, defined bolsters, and carefully shaped backrest contours support the natural double-S curve of the spine, eliminating the need for adjustable lumbar support. The Nürburgring Edition adds fore-aft adjustment and a highly adjustable reclinable backrest for personalized comfort.
  • Craftsmanship:
    • RECARO crafts the Sportster CS Nürburgring Edition with meticulous attention to detail, offering it for both driver and passenger in a performance-focused configuration. The seat features a slim, contoured backrest, high-grade black leather upholstery, stitched RECARO and Nürburgring logos, and dynamic red accent stitching and striping on the seat shell. The result is a design that combines premium materials, bold aesthetics, and superior craftsmanship.

Peak Body Support Performance

• RECARO notes that the Sportster CS delivers an immersive driving experience by creating the sensation of sitting in the seat, not on it. The seat’s low center of gravity, firm padding, supportive bolsters, and ample arm movement work together to stabilize the driver against lateral forces. This design enables controlled cornering even at the limit, delivering the intentional “calculated thrill” that defines RECARO performance.

The Nürburgring – Race Track of the Gods

• RECARO highlights the heritage of the Nürburgring as one of the world’s most demanding and celebrated circuits. With its infamous Nordschleife and modern Grand Prix course, the track has challenged drivers since 1925 with its blind corners, elevation changes, and unforgiving surfaces. Its legendary status, including Jackie Stewart’s nickname “The Green Hell,” underscores why competing (and winning) there requires extraordinary endurance and skill. The Nürburgring 24 Hours remains a defining motorsport event in which drivers cover immense distance under extreme conditions.

Every Inch Luxurious

• RECARO curates every material in the Nürburgring Edition with intention, pairing red and black leather, accent stripes, and refined stitching to emphasize the seat’s dynamic form. The special edition blends aesthetics, advanced lightweight materials, premium foams, and handcrafted detail to meet RECARO’s premium standards. Each seam, cushion, and finishing touch reflects the expertise of RECARO’s craftsmen, reinforcing the seat’s exclusive character.

Seats Tailored for Perfection

• RECARO positions the Sportster CS as a tailored solution that fits the driver perfectly and enhances both personal style and vehicle character. Built with passion, skill, and premium materials, the seat combines sportiness, functionality, and individuality, making it ideal for dynamic, high-performance driving.

Sit Back and Enjoy

• RECARO explains that long periods behind the wheel place strain on the body due to passive seating posture and forces such as vibration, deceleration, and lateral load. Seats like the Sportster CS counter these stresses with ergonomic structures, body-hugging contours, firm but supportive padding, pronounced bolsters, and adjustable features. RECARO designs its seats to support the human body correctly, acknowledging that humans are not naturally built for extended sitting, especially in demanding driving environments.

  • Body-hugging seat contours
