If you’re searching for a vehicle that aligns with a vegan, animal-product-free lifestyle, Subaru has great news for you. Several Subaru models now feature interior upholstery designed without the use of animal materials. At All American Subaru in Old Bridge, our team is ready to walk you through the available options and help you find a Subaru that fits both your values and your lifestyle. What Does “Vegan Interior” Really Mean? Subaru’s non-leather upholstery option is known as StarTex. This material is a synthetic, animal-product-free fabric made with a durable polyurethane surface and a backing that includes 25% recycled PET, the same type of plastic commonly used in water bottles. StarTex is designed as an alternative to leather and is free of animal-derived materials. It is also built to be practical and easy to maintain, offering durability, water resistance, and comfort for everyday driving. However, in certain trims, you may still find leather accents such as a leather-wrapped steering wheel or shift knob. If your goal is a completely vegan interior, it’s important to confirm that all interior surfaces, including the steering wheel, shift knob, center console, and door panels, are free of leather or other animal-derived materials. Which Subaru Models Offer StarTex? Subaru offers StarTex upholstery in select models and trims, giving shoppers several vegan-friendly seating options to explore, including: Subaru Outback: StarTex is available on select adventure-focused trims. Subaru Crosstrek: Select trims offer durable StarTex upholstery designed for active lifestyles. Subaru Ascent: StarTex seating is available on select Onyx Edition models. Subaru Solterra: Subaru’s all-electric SUV offers StarTex upholstery on select trims. If you’re aiming for a completely vegan interior, we recommend verifying the materials included with the exact model and trim you’re considering. Our team can help you review the seating surfaces and smaller interior components before you choose your Subaru. Why Choose a Vegan-Friendly Subaru Interior?
