No one can answer other than to say, no they do not currently and maybe they will in the future.

What you are referring to is ventilated seats.
In order to have ventilated seats they would need to be perforated,
and Tesla at this time does not have that design.

No personal experience but Katzkin have both perforated leather seat replacement and heating/cooling unit options. I have seen their leather seat covers installed at various dealers and the quality is better than the typical OEM equivalent.
This product is my backup plan when the white Tesla seats start getting trashed but would need to price the cooling and see if it makes sense. It doesn't get hot often enough, that even with a fish bowl C-Max and black interior, I never found it intolerable without ventilated seats.

This is one of the biggest things I miss in our Tesla's other than a HUD. I thought both were silly until I had them, and then did not. Would be a great addition.
They are a real accessory. My S being delivered on Friday and it has ventilated seats so we will see if they work very well. I would love to have them on my Y but until they offer them, white seats it is.
Tesla Model 3 and Model Y to gain heated wipers and ventilated seats?
The Model 3 and Model Y manuals have been recently updated to reflect a new feature for Tesla's most popular vehicles. The Model 3 and Model Y manuals no

Added at least to manual. Schedule unknown.

Really hoping vented seats are coming as part of the recent price increase. Had this in my 2012 f150.. insane it’s not offered on a 22 MY for near 60k.

This is from January, and has since been replaced a few times. Tesla has a tendency to "copy and paste" manuals from year to year, model to model, and vultures are quick to swoop in and "be the first" to report something new (rightfully so, cant blame them!) so quickly, Tesla doesnt even have time to delete their mistake.
Here is the link to the current manual, which has been updated to reflect the new screenshot, since about 2 hours after the link shared above was published. LOL. Even now, the manual is out of date as V11 is totally different than half the info.
We can only hope someday....

My experience with BMWs I owned with ventilated seats was the same - only slightly better than not having them at all.
However, at least the Ford trucks I've owned with air conditioned seats have been excellent, and I actually need to turn them down a bit sometimes because my back actually gets a bit chilly.

I had a Hyundai, 2018 Sonata Limited 2.0T to be precise and the ventilated seats worked so well. Its amazing how some do, and some dont.
I have personally found a huge difference in how ventilated vs. air conditioned seats operate. Ventilated seats that I've witnessed pull air through the perforated seat coverings and away from the driver/passenger. The air conditioned seats in my Ford truck, conversely, are fed by cold A/C air and blow it towards the driver through the seat cover perforations.
The genesis I just got rid of had amazing ventilated seats. Ive had several cars with them and Genesis were significantly better. It was a gv70.
I had an MKT with air conditioned seats and those did not work great.
