Lumbar jack

Can you please help. We have a member of staff that has back problems and needs good lumbar support. She has so far rejected the Ford Focus and a VW Golf. Any ideas for a car that will help in the same class?

Ford C-Max. Excellent driving position, but what is more important, excellent front seat access. Getting in and out causes most of the problems. Alternatives with upright seating positions: Suzuki Splash, Vauxhall Agila, Hyundai i10, Toyota Yaris (all now £35pa tax), Renault Modus. A Toyota Auris is the same size as a Focus but with more upright seating.
