I understand that and in every other car I’ve owned the headrest/restraint is positioned far enough back that you don’t rest your head on it. In the Model 3 (mine af least) it’s impossible not to rest your head on it as it’s angled so far forward. Very annoying.Its not a headrest and its not meant to be supportive. Its a restraint in case of an accident...

It’s nothing to do with the angle of my seat and everything to do with the fixed angle of the head restraint in relation to the seat back. I’m certainly not alone in noting the issue/annoyance although it could just be that a batch or a few batches of head restraints had their legs bent to a particular angle.i find that odd coz it means you must have the seat at an extreme upright angle then.
have you tried putting the angle of the seat back a bit futher?you probably sit too upright?
I agree with this. Would’ve liked to have seen some differentiation between LR and P in the seats. The P seats, being the same as all the others, are inadequate for enthusiastic driving.I find the lack of support of the rather soft seats and their fairly uncontoured side bolsters not helpful in a car with such power and road handling capabilities as my M3P.
I understand that Tesla has to calculate cost and has to consider what many folks test driving the car may initially find "comfortable". But the cushioning is simply too soft, and the seats have little to no body hold. I already inquired, but there are no alternatives Tesla is offering and no third-party sport seats retrofittable, due to the heavy software integration of the seats with the car's brain.
Standing by to hear anything to the contrary...
This takes the biscuit for fan boy excuses. You're sitting wrong!!!

I’ve got used to it now but I definitely prefer the setup of every other car I’ve owned.
It's starting to be a common trend - anti whiplash head restraints aren't just on Teslas, no doubt to get a good NCAP score.I understand that and in every other car I’ve owned the headrest/restraint is positioned far enough back that you don’t rest your head on it.

Yes. I rent teslas here and there specifically for long trips. M3 and MY are the most uncomfortable seats I have ever sat in. The whole point of having a big autonomy car is for long trips and you can’t sit in one for longer than 60 minutes without having your hips in pain. Toes fall asleep because of lack of circulation. M3 is even worse because of rigidity of headrest. So add neck pain as well as hips. Completely unacceptable for a car of this price.I have picked up my model 3 today and drove for 3.5 hrs. The seats initially are very comfortable however I found that the bottom side of the seats so soft the plastic tray underneath was digging into my hips? Does anyone else find this?
I have implemented seat fixes.im 184 cm and have the same issue. no idea why.
That does help.A small pad or folded towel will elevate your bottom just above the height of the plastic seat-bottom ridges causing many of us pain. Ridiculous that it’s necessary, but it works.
