A few weeks ago my wife took delivery of a new Range Rover Autobiography. I was shocked at how far competitive automotive electronics has come. I'll just focus on one feature. The car has several external cameras, and is able to seamlessly stitch their views together into a simulated overhead picture of the car's surroundings. It can do this in real time so you can watch your maneuvers as if from a drone hovering overhead. The car itself is a CGI image. In the picture below, you can see my red P85D charging next to the new Rover in our garage.

This model Range Rover is comparably priced to the kind of Tesla it's sitting next to, but in terms of usability and stability, its consumer-facing electronics blows away what Tesla now offers, except for the size of the map on the Model S screen (although the Rover map shows real-time traffic, just like Tesla's). The Autobiography will even use it's cameras and intelligence to back a horse trailer exactly where you want it to go, which is something this driver finds difficult to do! All of this functionality has the fingerprints of MobilEye all over it.
My point is that I fear Tesla's monomaniacal focus on trying to crack automated driving has led it to ignore a lot of functionalities that are becoming competitive check-off items against other high-end car brands. And to return to the original topic of this thread, please don't even get me started on the quality of the Autobiography interior (again, for the same price as a P100D) which argues for Tesla's need to upgrade its offering soon. While Tesla says "no, you can't have leather," Rover says "would you like the Autobiography ceiling to be an alcantara-equivalent, or would you like it (where it is not panorama glass) to be entirely covered with beautifully-stitched soft leather like the rest of the upholstery, no extra charge (which is to say for a price equivalent to a P100D)" We chose the leather.
