Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an interior trim part, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising a base component, a decorative layer made of leather or a leather-like material, and a spacing layer between the base component and the decorative layer, the spacing layer being made of a material that is softer than the material of the base component. The base component, the decorative layer and the spacing layer each have a localized area of weakened material, which allows the interior trim part to break away in a controlled manner when a predefined amount of force is applied to the base component, wherein, at least in the area of weakened material, an intermediate layer lies between the decorative layer and the spacing layer, which intermediate layer does not have a localized weakened area. The invention further provides a method for producing the interior trim part.
