New Car Smell

Interior off-gassing. Diminishes with ownership.

RESEARCH NOTES

The odor released as the plastics, adhesives and upholstery of a newly manufactured vehicle interior give off volatile organic compounds. It fades over the first months of ownership and is sold separately in air fresheners for vehicles that have lost it.
