He also worked with the company&#8217;s design studio team, which used virtual reality modelling to test ideas before building the final vehicle.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wotherspoon describes the car&#8217;s interior as entirely vegan. The dashboard, steering wheel, and center console were crafted using cork for an earthly feeling. The roof lining, seat centers, and sun visors were made with beige corduroy, which Porsche has previously used for seat centers in some of its cars.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_84300\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-84300\" style=\"width: 1430px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84300 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/vegconomistcom\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic.jpeg\" alt=\"vegan leather interior Porsche Taycan\" width=\"1440\" height=\"812\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic-1024x577.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic-150x85.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic-768x433.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/dev.vegconom.de\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/Vegan-Porsche-full-pic-1320x744.jpeg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-84300\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Porsche<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Original colors with family names&nbsp;<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sean Wotherspoon explains that color was at the centre of the car&#8217;s exterior finish. He wanted to use his &#8216;brand&#8217; color palette but in different tones.
