The smell you are asking about is caused by the chemicals used in the manufacturing process to make the auto interior parts, i.e. plastic, rubber and fabric. These are released as the car ages, and that is why the ‘new car smell’ goes away with age.

Additionally, some of these byproducts (the process is called ‘outgassing’) are suspected -and in some cases proven – to be carcinogenic.
