Clearly, the von Holzhausens have figured out how to cash in. Vicki von Holzhausen has partnered with renowned Tesla tuners Unplugged Performance for the interior offering. UP does a lot with going fast in Teslas and is currently fielding a car in this year’s Pikes Peak Hill Climb. Any Tesla vehicle currently in production can have the work done, so long as the owner can swallow that extremely hefty price tag.
According to the company, this vegan “leather” is actually made from bamboo, hence its name, Banbu Leather. It should be mostly sustainable, without getting into the weeds too much in regard to supply chains, et cetera. Bamboo is a highly renewable wood and is one of the fastest-growing plants on the planet.
The new option is also available on newly-ordered vehicles, meaning you buy the car right from Unplugged Performance, and then they’ll ship it right to you. Think of it as the most expensive Tesla option to date – at least until Musk hikes the price of FSD again with new tech.
