Expect BMW and MINI models with vegan interiors in 2023
By CARSIFU | 9 September 2022
MUNICH: The BMW Group plans to launch its first vehicles featuring completely vegan interiors in 2023. This is being made possible through the development of innovative materials with leather-like properties.
It will also be possible to use these materials for steering wheel surfaces, which must fulfil demanding criteria when it comes to feel, premium appearance and wear resistance.
BMW said it is serving the demand for vegan and leather-free interiors, which is set to increase further in the near future, especially in the US, China and Europe.
BMW is working to cut CO2 emissions over the entire life cycle of a vehicle in its move to climate neutrality by 2050
