What can I do about the seats in my 2023 Haval Jolion getting too hot?

When I bought my 2023 Haval Jolion a couple of months ago, I was told the seats are leather. But they get super-hot to the point of almost burning my skin when the car is left anywhere in the sun or otherwise. What can I do? Are there seat cover options?

A lot of cars are trimmed with leather these days, but it's also a fact that there's leather and then there's leather. Some is supple and rich and lovely, while some car-makers specify a grade of leather that is still technically a cow's hide, but is of distinctly inferior quality. These cheaper leathers are the ones that tend to get hotter, but it's also true that all leather will get hot if you lock your car and park it in the sun.

There are plenty of seat cover options, but a favourite for those who like their comfort is the good old sheepskin cover. Again, these are available in a range of quality and price-points, but a good set will definitely stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
