Many Toyota models offer a range of interior options, including leather and SofTex® seating surfaces. But what exactly are the differences between Toyota SofTex and leather interiors? Keep reading this guide from Earnhardt Toyota to find out. more Read more: Where to Buy Toyota Accessories and Parts Mesa AZ Toyota SofTex® Seating Toyota SofTex is a synthetic leather interior that is highly resistant to spills and allows for easy cleaning. This soft-to-the-touch interior is environmentally friendly and produces fewer emissions during production. SofTex® is purely synthetic, using no animal-based materials in the process, making it a great alternative to typical leather interiors. SofTex® looks and feels like traditional leather and keeps drivers cool behind the wheel thanks to its highly breathable materials. This environmentally friendly fabric is a perfect match for drivers looking for a durable and attractive alternative to standard leather fabrics. SofTex vs Leather Auto Interior When it comes to looking at SofTex versus leather auto interior, there are a few basic differences that may sway your decision one way or the other. Leather seats often retain heat from the sun more than SofTex seating does, simply because of the materials used to craft the seats. Leather will absorb UV rays, creating a hotter surface, whereas SofTex® is more breathable and features a special coating that reflects UV rays and absorbs less heat. Additionally, leather seats often require more routine cleaning and conditioning to keep them in good condition, whereas SofTex® tends to be more dirt resistant. Leather and SofTex® surfaces are both highly durable, making either option a great pick for many drivers. They both exude a certain ambiance that is associated with luxury rides.
