I have to say that one of the doubts I still have with changing my registration into an order is the lack of practical solutions in the interior. No (standard) consoles, no door pockets, no folding mirrors.
How could they have forgotten/skipped/ deleted (Alpha had them!) such simple, but important things? It can't be the cost, as those are low. Some important people must have had an off-day when they decided to go the minimalistic route.
It's a pity, because so much attention was given to the drivetrain, the suspension, the brakes/regeneration, the exterior. How, after all that attention to making the perfect car, can you put potential customers in a position that they have to walk away because the interior is simply not practical enough for storing maps, bottles, sun glasses, coins and all that other stuff people want within reach? I hope Tesla can make the necessary changes, there is still time!
I believe it is exactly what they say. Not a rush, not unfinished, but a conscious decision.
Personally, I like the idea. In any car we owned, junk we never used again went in most of those spots. Adding clutter and not much else.
Now, I know everyone is different. I just wanted to give you an alternate point of view
