Looking for pics of the vegan steering wheel

[ahimberg]

I have the vegan steering wheel also (delivered end of May), the feel is a little less soft to the touch but otherwise pretty similar. Unclear if its still the newness, but the leather one (on previous model S and loaners i've had) built up a hand grease layer pretty quick, haven't noticed that on the vegan wheel.

At the time I got mine, they said I couldn't get the heated steering wheel in the all weather package with the vegan option, so I didn't get the package at all... not sure if that's changed yet

Hmmm. Is anyone certain if the current standard steering wheel is leather? I just picked up my 70D last week and did not think the steering wheel feels like leather. I have a leather wheel in my present car and have others in the past, so I know how they feel.
I could be wrong but it feels like a man-made material -- too smooth and even in color to be natural, I think. And by the way, I do have the optional interior that supposedly has more leather and "better materials."

I had the impression that the steering wheels changed last September when the stalks were also rearranged -- and assumed the covering changed as well. I looked in the specs and see no mention of leather cover in the specs.

The leather one is super smooth in look, the vegan one has a fake leather pattern imprinted on it
