For those of you with the rioja red interiors, how is it wearing? Is it dark enough where you don't get blue denim dye staining it, etc? Many non-black/charcoal interiors look great when new but then quite dingy after a few thousand miles. Just curious because I love the look of the red. Thanks!

 

I have '14 w/ 35K on it, so far no stain no crack at all.

 

I couldn't tell at a glance that it had any blue-jean staining, but I just thoroughly cleaned the seats after about six months and got a lot of blue stuff off. But like I said, I doubt you'd be able to see it, especially if you keep your legs on the seat bottom (i.e. don't lean on the bolsters too heavily, as they are solid red instead of perforated). I also was kind of expecting it since my wife and I have both recently bought new jeans.

 

Thanks for the feedback! I figured it would be a lot better than a tan interior in that regard.

 

It darkens over time. My 14 ultra white/rioja red driver seat was noticeably darker than the passenger side. The "leather" was not showing wear though.

 

Since it isn't leather, is it fairly easy to clean?

 

I have just been using disinfecting wipes and accidentally removing the demin stains in the process... Though I am not aware whether it's good for the seating surface or not. To answer the question, denim stains are pretty easy to remove, yes.

 

 

I haven't noticed any staining at all and I wear blue jeans a lot. No cracking either. It's held up quite well. I just wipe it down with a wet micro fiber here and there. Nothing fancy.

 

My 2015 Rioja interior is not showing any signs of wear. It will occasionally show blue dye from my jeans, but as others mentioned, it comes off easily with a wet cloth.

 

Thanks again, everyone!
