According to the electronic parts catalog, there are only two types of c900 airbag wheel: leather and non-leather. I know from my '92 900S that the non-leather wheel is molded, not covered, so you can deduce that the material must be leather. (Saab used the same airbag wheels for '92 and '93.)
That said, I have seen the leather worn out before, so if you are not the original owner, and the car's a high-miler, then it's conceivable that someone's had vinyl re-sewn onto the wheel. If there is some loose stitching somewhere and you can catch a glimpse of the underside of the wrap, then you can tell if it's leather if it looks like suede (vinyl will have a cloth backing on it).
