Does anyone know if both napa and Mulan are actually leather? I'm finding a lot of strange, clickbait articles on the web, none of which seem credible. I have the impression mulan is synthetic, but napa is real leather. Please confirm or correct.
Thanks.
Mulan contains is a processed product made of chopped up leather (along with other stuff).
Napa is real leather made with a specific process. That is why it is referred to as Napa. However, it has a coating to protect it.
Realistically, Mulan will probably hold up better over time. Real leather isn't as durable as the synthetics.
There are some synthetic leathers out there that feel just as good as real leather but hold up better.
That said, I'm going with the 3LT interior if I get a C8.

Bought my C7 with the 1LT and will do the same with my C8 when the time comes. My 1LT is very well equipped as far as I am concerned and a joy to drive. To each his/her own . Enjoy this fantastic car.
