Color interior

Generally speaking I like bright interior, and in EQS I'm really impressed with the beige one. Do you guys think that it hold well after some time? The tesla's white interior is actually quite good.

I'm concerned, especially about the wheel.

What color have you chosen, and how is it doing? Upload some pics if you want

It won't hold up as well as the Tesla interior because it is natural leather. You will want to make sure you don't wear clothing with dyes which can transfer. I used to have an E63 with the beige nappa leather and I had to have the seats re-dyed because someone sat in the car with a denim jacket and it was wet.

Agree....my E350 had beige interior, and I could not wear jeans on long trips. I was able to remove the blue stains with good leather cleaner, but I much prefer the black leather I now have. My last two cars have had black leather, and have done very well.....plus the glare is much less and you often don't have to wear sunglasses.

That said if you want to use the light leather, I have heard a nano coating can improve cleanability. Not sure though.

Absolutely correct. My wife loves jeans and the interor on her GLS is light tan. After the second time cleaning the darn stains I gave up and put a cover on buttom cushion. Looks horrible!

What about beige vegan leather? Maybe it is easier to maintain.

MB tex (aka pleather) is fine. It just doesn't feel the same.

Mercedes doesn't have a Nappa equivalent vegan leather, and there is no vegan option for the EQS in the USA. BMW interestingly has launched a premium version of Sensatec which they say is equivalent in softness and feel to their premium Nappa and Merino leathers. It would be great if Mercedes did something similar. I prefer a high end synthetic fabric IF they can achieve a similar look and feel to a Nappa leather.

We have macchiato MB Tex now in an E300. Our previous car was almond leather which we loved. It does not feel like leather at all but it is super stain resistant and easy to clean. We have 3 boys and it still looks brand new.

Which BMW has the "premium Sansatec?" I wasn't impressed with the iX's non-leather interior.

Ah, I didn't realize they were putting Sansatec in the i7, I only knew of the new cloth they are doing.

I have a test drive for the iX and i4 scheduled next week since BMW is hosting an EV event nearby so hopefully I should be able to experience the Napa interior which can weirdly only be spec'd in grey or red.

do you mean the Amido leather interior? That is much nicer than Nappa. It is olive leaf tanned leather. Porsche also offers it as an upgrade over their regular nappa leather.

I have designo white Exclusive Nappa leather in my 2017 GLS63, and had it in my 2011 S63 sedan, and have never had a problem with keeping it clean. I don’t wear cheap jeans, cf Zegna.

I don't wear cheap jeans either. But you never know what your passengers wear. If I take a client or friend out for dinner, I am not going to vet them for high end jeans.

I guess, I didn't really follow/look into the iX much upon its release. I will say BMW's Milano Leather is very nice.

So does my wife🤣
Joking aside all denim bleeds, if not its not real. The explenation is quite simple, unlike other dyes denim is not bonded to the cotton is deposited in between and primarily on the fiber. Synthetics like rayon polyester ect, the color is the germane color of the fiber thus it is impossibke fot it to bleed. Organic chemistry 101. If your jeans dont bleed they are not "real" jeans regardless of price.

Got to compromise on exterior color to get black interior.
kid, wife
Meaning, food, make up, jeans, sweat

Otherwise bright looks good as different panel contrasting but looks good at the dealer, after the above things not so much probably

BTW my Neva gray interior is truly spectacular! The contrast of light gray with light brown highlights and wood is elegant and airy. Note the matching carpets, I havent received my MB all weather mats but they are also brown. LOVE IT.

In the passenger footwell just below the console to the left. It seems that cars with ruflats don't have it. It could be that some early production vehicles didn't include it. Its a little box with a spring-loaded top.

I agree with you! The interior looks great! Very futuristic! Makes any other car look dated.
