You can tell. The Leather in a early Hyundai is not as nice as say a Benz.

99.1% (or there about) of automotive cabin-leather is "coated" with some type/grade of a urethane.
Hard to tell the total outlay that an OEM spent, on this "type" of leather.
What about Pleather, MB-Tex, NuBuck, etc...
"Coated", or not?

I don't think leatherette would need to be coated since it's a man made material.
Leather is coated to preserve it.

•IMHO:
-Maybe yes; maybe no.
-Depends on the OEMs' engineering specs for their vehicle models that are to receive this "type" of leather.

^^^Kinda my point all along.^^^l
•So how can the "quality of the leather" be readily known if it's coated?
•OH Yea...I must not forget that:
Not all "types" of leathers are coated, though,

Wouldn't the leatherette be designed with a coating, so technically it's not a coating, it's just as designed

Using your above analogy, then;
The "real" leather, (that comprises the outermost component of my truck's auto-seats' total architectural-structure), although and by design: having been "coated for protection", is not really technically coated---it's just as designed.
Correct?

No, not at all. Leather is a natural surface that is protected for longevity. Leatherette is engineered to not need a coating or protectant for longevity. Huge difference.
Check out the maint requirements for a VW with leatherette, it's basically maintenance free. Their leather equipped cars are not.

I got the leather cleaner and conditioner........dislike the fact that it leaves a greasy feeling when someone sits on it.

Time to ditch this or any other leather conditioners!!
It's: Clean and Protect. Clean and Protect.
This kit will accomplish that feat:
