Just wanted to pile on that these are great seats - very happy with the BMP choice now.

@JimVandegriff how does the material feel to touch? Does it feel or look cheap? Possible for you to upload a video? The DS said non leather looks cheap. I am still not convinced I want leather, my decision converts to an order on 5th July. Need to make a call before that..View attachment 174701 View attachment 174702 View attachment 174704 View attachment 174705 View attachment 174706 View attachment 174708
Here are pics of my black cloth seating taken this morning.
No, but after you order, you can call Tesla and ask them to switch to Multi-Pattern seats. There are some changes that can be done manually via the phone - this may be one of them.You can't order PUP with multi-pattern seats on the X. Jim's signature says non-PUP.
is that proven? My Ownership associate at the tesla store seems ignorant to this, and does it mean they will refund me the $2,500 on the leather seats?No, but after you order, you can call Tesla and ask them to switch to Multi-Pattern seats.

All I can say is that I've see people in this forum report that they have been able to get non-standard configurations by calling Tesla. If your local DS isn't able to help, then call or Email Fremont (e.g. [email protected]).is that proven?

With regards to pricing, it's all what you can negotiate. Call/Email before you place your order. If they cannot accommodate your change, you could always request a refund.
I'm sorry if I given the wrong impression. Tesla is not like a typical dealer and when I wrote "negotiate" I didn't mean to give the impression that the price of the vehicle was fluid. But if you've negotiated the multi-pattern seats, technically they should be cheaper, so you might try to ask for compensation for that. No guarantee that Tesla will bite, but it doesn't hurt to ask.Regarding negotiation, you are suggesting that folks have been able to negotiate the cost of the premium package to factor out the cost for ventilated seats by sweet talking to them over phone? Could you help me find some tips? I would really love that option.
I did this yesterday however the experience on phone is subpar. The reps don't know much and I havent got the email confirmation either.No, but after you order, you can call Tesla and ask them to switch to Multi-Pattern seats.

Did you find answer to your question? My order locks tomorrow and am in half a mind to get PUP just for the headliner quality.How is the headline, is it the same material in the showrooms on the sample wall a soft fabric?

Any idea if I will still get leather in rest of the areas? Arm rests, steering and lower dashboard? Am guessing that will not be true.
It's my understanding that all seats in the X are same, just that leather makes it more bolstered.I bought a Model S with cloth seats and the Premium Package. By default it has leather in all the other areas unless you contact them and request a vegan car.
I've contacted Tesla about getting the front seats replaced with next gen seats. Neither of us like leather seats in cars, but the cloth seats in the Model S are horribly uncomfortable. It's like sitting on concrete after a while. Poor leg support in the front too. I went to the Tesla store on Saturday and sat in next gen seats just to see the difference, they were far better.
I don't know about the cloth seats on the X, but FYI with my experience.
I have to agree with your assessment. We have the MP black seats on our Aug delivery MX and love them. We find them comfortable, easy to clean, durable with kids and dog, and they look great with the pure white exterior paint.To add/bump; we don't have our X yet, but we had a 24-hour test drive in Multi Pattern Black cloth/textile seats. And we all thought they were great. Even the kids (11 & 13) who are used to leather seats in our Honda Odyssey proactively commented how nice they were.
Just so people know, most people really like the multipattern seats in the S. I have them and feel the leather version of the same seat frame is stiffer. the Model X seats felt a bit better than my S multipattern, but the Next Gen did not feel as good as either. It's softer than leather but still firm enough. I like my multipattern seats better than Lexus, Mercedes or BMW vehicles. Can't compare to 7Series or S class as I haven't ridden in them.
