Classification of Automotive Leather 

A) Artificial car leather: 

Most cars priced under USD30,000  use artificial leather. There are three types of artificial leather: PVC leather, PU leather and PU synthetic leather. 

B) Microfiber automotive leather:

The full name of microfiber leather is microfiber-reinforced leather, which is a relatively advanced synthetic leather and polyurethane composite material. 
It feels very close to genuine leather, is resistant to low temperatures, wear and tear, and tensile force, and is not easy to break. It is mainly used in mid-to-high-end cars. 

C) Genuine leather:

The first or second layer of cowhide is commonly used in automobiles. The cost of leather for a full set of seats can amount to tens of thousands of dollars, and it is mostly used in high-end vehicles, especially for car seat leather.
