No power lift gate??? How is that "premium"?
Somehow, someway, I'm able to dig down real deep and summon the strength necessary to lift my own dang trunk. It might not be what you would consider the glamorous life, but miraculously I manage.
Meanwhile, on an Audi A4, you can get the fancy "open by swinging your foot under the car" lift-gate when your hands are full...
That said, I'm not sure we can fully believe Tesla's comparison sheet yet. We shall see how accurate it ends up being, whether or not Model 3 trunk will be manual only really.
Let's be real here. Tesla is making the 35k class sound like something it was perhaps 15-20 years ago. In reality, today that is a class of real premium vehicles with tons of customization and high-end features. It is OK to say the BEV drivetrain is more important (it will be to many) or that software updates over the air are advanced, but let's not fool ourselves about the rest.
