They built at least 2 five seaters by now. I got mine this morning! This picture show the seat fully reclined. There are three other positions between fully reclined and fully upright.
I have this 5-seater on order as well. These photos confirm what I have previously seen. It's on par with what you would expect in a $30k car, but I expected better from a $100k+ Tesla. My 2004 GMC Yukon has better fit and finish than those seat backs. I'll have to look past it, but it's not an auspicious beginning.I picked up a new 5 seat Model X yesterday. I think the back seats are ok, not great. Disappointed with the smaller proportioned center seat and the open back that stuff hanging out. Looks circa 1980's minivan like, to my taste. I was disappointed in Tesla.

At the same time, aren't these almost the same seats as the Model S?
I'm not talking about the carpet on the backs, you have to expect that the back will also function as a floor. In this configuration, you have two height settings for the area behind the 2nd row seats. You can either set it to be level with the top of the folded 2nd row backs, or to the lower level, which gives you the maximum height in the cargo area and you have a step up at the 2nd row seat. It seams to me that most of the time, I'm going to want the floor set to the lower position since that gives you the most storage, and that will leave the lower area of the 2nd row seat exposed. You see what I mean in the photo Amp Dup posted above that has the paint bucket. That area next to the floor just looks messy, as well as letting things roll under the seats and unto the floor of the 2nd row seats. There should be a panel across there next to the floor to both hide that area and isolate the cargo area from the rest of the car.At the same time, aren't these almost the same seats as the Model S?
I hope you're right. That would address my concerns about all that exposure when you have the floor level set at the lower point, which is where I think I would almost always keep mine. Would only need the higher setting if I specifically needed a level floor front to back.Regarding the unfinished look, could it is still be that there is a part missing? If you have a close look at the picture from Design Studio, added a lot of light, it shows some kind of edge across, just behind the seats. It makes sence. As it is now, small parts will easily run under the seats when breaking, and your cargo could also damage this cables for heating e.g...
If it was supposed to be like this it is very strange that they did not add some fabric at least that would hide this with not much effort...

I basically agree with rpskanter. It is a very basic seat. Fit and finish is somewhat a matter of taste. There are a couple of waves in the leather in the center seat. Not too objectionable but noticeable. I think it would be hard to find another bench seat WITHOUT a center armrest. It didn't occur to me to sit in the center seat but the outside seats are pretty comfortable. How they would be after a couple hours, I can't say. The 5 seat arrangement is what I wanted and I'm not sorry I didn't get 6 or 7. There is tons of storage space below "deck level" behind the seat.How is the fit and finish, and what about the head room for the middle seat? Are you happy with the configuration?
I'd love to see a 4 seater where the 2 chairs fold down.
I was hoping what you meant was coming was a piece that would separate the cargo area from the underside of the folding seats, but what's coming is the panel that would sit over where that paint bucket is. Is that right? (disappointed)There is a "floorboard" that goes in behind the bench seat but it is not yet available. They will let me know when they come in. A trim piece behind the hinge point would be nice.View attachment 206478
I know you are asking about a foldable second row, but just for fun... a guy in France actually did this:
A four seater with folding rear seats.
