Depends on whether it has the gen 1 seats or the "next gen" seats... Next gen are quite comfortable. I think "next gen" were introduced around 2016 but I am not too sure.

Gen 1 were indeed pretty dismal.
My 2015 85D has Next Gens. My 2014 had the original seats to which Elon referred. Night and day difference. I love the “next gen” seats on my 2015.
 
I sold my 2016 75D for a 2023 LR. Total all inclusive cost was in the low 50Ks thanks to the price I got for the old car.

What I like about the 2023:
* Vastly greater range, excellent combined consumption close to rated range.
* The ventilated seats and far better climate control
* Air suspension, coming from coil . Excellent ride quality, wife's motion sickness seems to have disappeared.
* Rear display is great for rear pax, esp our kids.
* Overall interior quality - its not best in class, but way superior to the 2016.

Dislikes
* Used to the turn buttons but would still prefer stalks.
* Slightly lower functional storage in front and back - the frunk and trunk are both shallower, and the storage area on the right of the trunk is unusable.
