How are the Tech Orchid interiors holding up?

[cammyfive]

I'm curious how the synthetic suede portion of the seats on Tech Package cars with the Orchid colored interiors are holding up? Of course they look perfect in all of the new cars I've seen but I haven't had a chance to see a pre-owned one with some miles on it in person yet. Personally it's my favorite interior color offered but I fear the white color would stain rather easily. I assume a gentle fabric/upholstery cleaner would be used on the fake suede portion.

Knocking on wood, surprisingly not bad. I'm at 12,000 miles and 17 months and still looking good. I am pretty diligent about trying to keep it clean so that helps.
Ironically, my son has a Tech in red and those seats are harder to keep looking decent. Part of it is use, but also part of it is the coloring.

The Alcantara is good quality all around, including the sueded inserts, the edges, headrests, armrest, doors, and backseat.

Bought my car on 7/5/22. It has 18,600 miles. The next day I treated it with Colour Lock, and it looks great. I brush it now and then to get hair and lint off. The brush comes in the color lock kit that I bought for $50, which I got ahead of my pickup date for my car.

No stains so far on the sueded parts. I will be checking it closely and treating it again soon after the rain and humidity in California passes. I clean the front door inside handles about every month since they pick up hand stickiness and show dark smudges.

I'm happy with the Orchid interior after a year. The microfiber stuff likes to pick up lint and fuzz, but I haven't noticed any dye transfer, staining, or unusual wear.

Nice! I've used Colourlock leather cleaner and protector on our previous vehicles so that's great to hear.
