I've found seats to be a very subjective topic - what one person loves another person hates... best one's I've ever had long-trip were in a 2000 Buick Lesabre, and they definitely fit the description of well-cushioned. I have a 2007 Grand-Prix has excellent seats for sport-driving, but they don't let me move around at all. That restricts my comfort level significantly on long trips. The same held true of the Toyota Celica AWD Turbo that I owned - excellent seats for thier purpose but just not good for me on a long trip.

BTW, that Buick returned a best of 6.6l/100kms on a warm-day, overinflated tire trip to BC, 60mph average. It was typically around 7.0 on highway trips and it had a 3800.
