The Nubuck leather interior in the Volvo XC90 offers a luxurious and soft touch that enhances your driving experience. To maintain its beauty and durability, proper cleaning and care are essential. Nubuck leather is similar to suede but typically more durable, requiring gentle treatment to preserve its texture.

Cleaning Your Nubuck Leather Interior

Start by vacuuming the seats and other leather surfaces to remove dust and loose dirt. Use a soft brush attachment to avoid damaging the delicate fibers. For spot cleaning, use a nubuck or suede cleaner specifically designed for this type of leather. Apply the cleaner with a soft cloth or sponge, gently rubbing in circular motions.

Avoid using water or harsh chemicals, as they can stain or damage the leather. After cleaning, allow the surface to air dry naturally — never use direct heat sources like hair dryers.

Maintaining and Protecting Your Nubuck Leather

  • Regularly brush the leather with a nubuck brush to lift the nap and keep the surface looking fresh.
  • Use a leather protector spray designed for nubuck to guard against stains and spills.
  • Keep your car interior out of direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent fading.
  • Avoid eating or drinking in the vehicle to minimize the risk of stains.

By following these simple steps, you can keep your Volvo XC90’s nubuck leather interior looking pristine and luxurious for years to come.
