Alcantara is technically lighter than leather and breathes much better than the cheaper car leathers (like Dakota and Vernasca). It is also much tackier which acts as a natural bolster to prevent sliding in aggressive driving. So it does have substantial benefits for people who really drive their cars.

I'm all for cloth seats in a car, so I guess fake suede works too.
Would like to know what makes Dakota leather cheaper in your opinion?
I hope it's not because it's printed pebble grain vs. unprinted smooth leather. That doesn't make one more or less expensive.
