A seat cover protects your factory seats from the messes and spills that can damage the material and reduce their resale value. They also make the seats easier to clean, either by wiping down or washing in a machine. Some even include add-ons like anti-microbial protection, UV ray protection or odor resistance to keep your car’s interior looking new.
You’ll find seats covered in a range of fabrics, including neoprene, leather and faux leather. Select a fabric that matches your upholstery for a factory look or put your own spin on the cabin by selecting a color and style. Some covers come in sets of two or four while others are available individually.
One of the most popular seat covers is made from neoprene, which feels similar to wetsuit material. Many reviewers say it is comfortable to sit in and easy to wipe clean. It’s also water-resistant, which can help repel stains and keep the seats dry and cool. Another neoprene option is neosupreme, which offers the same durability as neoprene but is less expensive.
Another popular choice is a cotton/polyester blend, which is both affordable and easy to wipe clean. This cover is compatible with power seats and airbags, although reviewers caution that after several months it may stretch out and not fit as well as initially.
