Detroit —Vegetarian South Asians will be pleased to learn that top luxury automaker Mercedes-Benz informed People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) that all future Mercedes-Benz models will be available with a leather-free option either at the dealership or via special order in all markets.
