That’s a good question! Lyft likely asks about leather seats to give passengers more details about the ride experience and help match certain ride types or preferences. It can also play a role in premium ride options where interior comfort is a selling point. volvo services near me
Not to mention it's infinitely easier to clean. I feel all drivers should have it. Just wipe and go. It helps on rainy days, after driving pets, any accidents, etc. Fabric is WAY too much of a liability.
Depending on the car model, leather seating is a determining factor in being a "Select" Driver. The auto list is very narrow that qualifies, and those auto's that do must also have leather seating surfaces.

I haven't seen that inquiry, but it must be due to identifying whether your car fits into another category. Like a level of service.
or maybe for covid safety. Leather is easier to clean by simply wiping.
You mean like Bolt Protect.
Isn't there a slightly better Lyft service that requires leather seats? Could it be for that reason?
