Hi all, I test drove on the other day and it has a leather wrapped steering wheel. i find it very slippery. does it give more grip over time? my 2008 legacy doesn't have a leather wrapped steering wheel and it has way more grip.

I don't have one yet. i'm looking to buy a car and considering the Optima.

i have a '19 with leather steering wheel and agree with you, it was one of the first things i noticed when driving.
my '16 had the base wheel(plastic covering i guess) and actually prefer that.
