I know this might seem a daft question but does anyone know why new cars don’t have that ‘new car smell’ anymore even when brand new?
I personally haven’t had a brand new car since 2006 but I’ve been in a few new car dealers over the years to get cars serviced etc and always have a sit in whatever’s in the showroom. I first noticed at Seat a couple of years ago that the Leon I was in didn’t smell new, then the same at Skoda and today in a ford dealer.
Only the odd car with leather seats had any sort of new smell with it but even that was nothing like when I bought my last new car.
It was always one of the things I looked forward to most when getting a new car.
Anyone with new cars noticed this?
