suitably user-friendly solution
I was going to say "comfortable", but your extra context implies that it means convenient or easy to use.

appropriate palliative solution
If the purpose is the alleviation of pain or for general comfort, I would suggest "palliative" for "confort".

Update with the extra info in the discussion: The "de confort" could also refer to the control system of the wheelchair (anti-bump/tilt control, navigation etc.), i.e. the control system guaranteeing a smooth ride & correct navigation.
Perhaps "appropriate wheelchair control solution" or "wheelchair control solution appropriate to the patient condition" would work, if this is indeed the correct interpretation.
Reference:
"the venture is developing a wheelchair control solution to respond to the needs of the severely disabled and paralysed." (http://anthillonline.com/aviator-smart-100/)
" CONTRÔLE D’AMORTISSEUR DYNAMIQUE.
Le contrôle d’amortisseur dynamique permet d’ajuster idéalement le comportement des amortisseurs pour qu’ils s’adaptent à toutes les situations de conduite, et améliorent le confort et la dynamique de conduite. En plus de la ****configuration de confort*** standard, qui amortit les bosses et autres mouvements indésirables, deux autres programmes sont disponibles : les modes Sport et Sport+. Dans ces modes, les amortisseurs sont automatiquement serrés pour un style de conduite plus sportif." (https://www.bmw-tahiti.com/fr/all-models/x-series/X3/2014/dr...

Thanks Gareth. However, I'm not sure you can use "palliative" for general comfort and pain would not be a factor in all cases. |

adaptable ergonomic design/solution
This would be my translation.
Note from asker:
Thanks. Not sure whether "ergonomic" is over-translation, even if it is what they meant. Shall think about it. |
Discussion
But it's also true that the French does not use this word (ergonomique), leaving us in a conundrum :)
