Jaguar Land Rover Introduces First Vegan Interiors
The most recent model of Range Rover includes a vegan interior, using animal-free leather from sustainable materials maker Ultrafabrics.
Ultrafabrics have been working on sustainable materials with Jaguar Land Rover for quite a while.
Perry Hodge, Ultrafabrics’ Vice President of Transportation, says of the partnership, “We have been working closely with the Jaguar Land Rover design team’s research and innovation team for almost eight years.
“In the new models, especially the Range Rover SV, Ultrafabrics has a much larger presence throughout the interior which is the result of our year-long commitment to bringing luxury and innovation to our customers.”
He adds, “We are proud to bring their concept of modernity and their distinct subtle luxury to life.
“Ultrafabrics’ materials offer the same tactile qualities as leather but are 30% lighter and thereby generate a quarter of the carbon dioxide emissions.”
This partnership with Ultrafabrics has permitted Jaguar Land Rover to offer their most innovative materiality decisions to date with this new scope of Range Rovers.
The standard Range Rover model offers the Ultrafabrics choice in Ebony, while the SV Intrepid interior offers a double colorway of Light Cloud with Cinder Gray.
