Title: ART VELOURS SEATS
Post by: MEZZA on 30 October 2017, 09:27: Just wondering anybody on here who took first deliveries of the Mk 7.5 and had this option - how is the material
wearing up to now ? - yes,I know it's early days but just a thought.

Are you sure it is leather? On the VW site it says "leather look" and I'm pretty sure a lot of the actual leather interior is not actually leather....

It’ll be ‘pleather’ (vinyl) rather than real leather. The configurator describes the Art Velours option as ‘Black/Red Art Velours/leather look’. Even when you pay for the Vienna leather option you don’t get leather on the rear of the seats or door cards.
