Hi.
I'm now up to 48,000 miles in my almost 3 year old Polestar 2. I have a Launch Edition, so it came with WeaveTech seats. I chose Charcoal. At the time of ordering none of us knew anything about this product, then some of us did brief test drives and we had some initial reactions-
-like a wetsuit
-similar to worn denim
-obviously we had no idea how it would stand up to daily usage. I had my doubts but time would tell.
Honestly, I love it. It looks very modern. It is so easy to clean. A damp microfibre cloth does wonders. The only area with a slight mark is on my headrest due to the product I use in my hair. All the seats look as good as new without using soap or chemicals. There are no shiny spots or visible wear. In winter the seats are not cold to touch. Being dark, they get warm in the sun, but not enough to make me jump if it touches bare skin.
I appreciate that I do not live in a country with long, hot summers, which led many of you toward the ventilated leather seats.
For those of you that chose WeaveTech, do you have a similar experience? Does your lifestyle offer a different viewpoint?
And those of you with the newer fabric seats- how are you finding them (especially if you tried out WeaveTech as a comparison)?
Personally, if I was buying another Polestar, I'd opt for WeaveTech seats in an instant.
