I have kids and I think they would like the 4 zone climate but is it necessary

If they would like it, why not? It's not especially expensive, and you can get it separately from other options (unlike some of the others). I have it, and it's occasionally handy, which is more than I can say for LKA and Sport Chrono...

Nothing is necessary, but it stops disputes when you have two passengers with different preferences, and it looks nice.

As TDinDC says, it's not necessary but has its appeal.

I tend to carry rear seat passengers a fair bit and I optioned it. For me, it provides the passengers with an element of personal choice whilst creating a element of continuity with a similar screen (albeit much smaller) to those in the front? It's a small detail but I think it adds to the overall look as well as the passengers' experience imho.

How old are your kids?

Every time my kids get in the car they fight over it. They’d keep changing the temperature and change it back etc.

I have to turn on parental control on the door (disables windows, doors, and climate control for rear passengers) and turn it back off all the time when they need to get out.

I have it and would not bother with it again, just add a screen at kicking height and adds no real functionality.

I didn't get it and am glad. My backseat passengers stay comfortable without it.

If you have the option and nobody's in the back seat, you may want to reach back there and shut it off.

I ordered it with my vehicle and I like it. I often have back seat adult passengers and they are always playing with it. Perhaps it keeps them entertained. I think t enhances the look from the rear seat.

I got it because I liked the aesthetic better - I think I’ve had some in the back just once. Might be why my options cost was so expensive. YOLO :)

Like every single question about options, nobody will agree and, importantly, nobody else’s opinion matters. If you want it or think you’ll miss not having it, get it. If you are on the fence or watching budget, don’t. Easy peazy
