I am considering to have light interior in my CT, but Im just afraid that will I be able to keep it light, so afraid of getting stains from jeans,etc. Any of you guys had good experience with light leather interior in Taycan, is it easy to keep it clean ?

I recently saw a Taycan 4S from the local Porsche Centre with chalk interior and only 2000km on the clock. The seats were full of stains from Jeans. Guess nobody has ever cleaned the seats. I was so happy I haven't optioned Chalk interior. I think the white Tesla interior, I currently have on my Model S, is easier to clean as it's letherette and not genuine leather. Just my 2ct

I have standard interior in beige w/ 1650 miles and it still looks brand new. I know that’s not many miles, but I was really worried about the light color and am happy to see how it’s held up so far. I’ve probably driven over half those miles myself and always in jeans. I’ll be keeping a close eye on it for sure.

I have light interiors in all three of my current Porsches and have black/beige leather coming on my Taycan. I probably spend about 5 minutes a month doing a very quick clean with leather cleaner on each and they all look fine - and wear jeans just about all the time. Go for what you are going to enjoy.

After 7,000 miles with many, many friends and coworkers test driving my Taycan, the beige seats have no stains. I had the leather treated with Gyeon when new, but otherwise I don’t do anything special. I have the Olea leather if that makes a difference.

I’ve had white seats in my bmw for 5 years. I treat with leathermasters protectant every few months when I wash the car, no issues. When dye transfer does happen (usually from new dark blue jeans), it will wipe off with a bit of cleaner no problem.

23+ years of using HI-TECH extra foamy on all my vehicles. EXCELLENT results and keeps my interiors looking new. (Leather, vinyl, plastics, switches) I use it all the time on steering wheels and areas that get touched all time time.
