Here, we’ll take an in-depth look at this material and why it is a good choice for Macon drivers.
What is Lexus NuLuxe leather?
Lexus NuLuxe leather is an artificial leather upholstery that has been designed to appear exactly like genuine leather while being manufactured in a manner that is less harmful to the environment and requiring less maintenance.

It also generates 65% less CO2 emissions when made compared to other synthetic products.
Who is Lexus NuLuxe leather made for?
The NuLuxe leather offered by Lexus is an excellent alternative to genuine leather. However, despite its nearly identical appearance and texture to leather, it has a number of other important advantages.
