    Yep...in a climate like yours a black interior would be a no go.

    My son and I took a road trip to Arizona in our Black interior/Black exterior Hyundai Sonata...*in the summer*. That was a bad idea!

    dealer said once the new 2019 special editions come in. With -that- vin I will be able to order the whole steering wheel blacked out. Hopefully it won't be much

    Try Amazon or Ebay. They usually come from CHINA.

    A black interior is my favorite. I own two black cars with black interiors but I must admit my wife is in charge of dust control.

    When it came to replacing my third gen Prius in 2015, I went for a Lexus CT200h because I couldn't have lived with the white plastic in the fourth gen Prius ... or that outré exterior. I'm only coming back to a Prius this year because they've toned both down.

    The white is great - it doesn't show the dust like the piano black which is a terrible idea. Clean it - and it's dusty within minutes. I hate the sombre all-black interiors of modern cars:

    My fun car. Now my Prime is almost all black and very shiny. We’ll see how the gloss black works, might have to cover it with some vinyl. I think I preferred my Gen 3 with grey cloth with textured grey dash.
