Default Something real

I read in a review somewhere that Audi uses real leather even in the base model as opposed to the "leatherette" which is code for fake leather used in BMW for example low end models. Otherwise unless it is specified in the trim level as NAPA or Alacantera (sp?) , all we know is that it comes from an animal of some kind.

I would start with the PR code for your seat coverings and go from there.
For example, my B8 A4 has PR-N1F, which is listed as leather G grain pattern / leatherette B grain pattern. So a mix of leather and leatherette, in my car. As to the actual nature of the leather for the leather parts of the seat coverings, I'm sure there's a way to dig into that info more somewhere.

I looked up my 2018 A4 P+ and its also listed as PR-N1F so my guess would be the same for OP.
