I'll leave it to others who already have their X's to give you the more authoritative information, but in the meantime I'll give you my observations from looking at photos that others have posted. I was actually thinking about the location of the 2nd row seat in relation to the door opening the other day.
Here are a couple of photos that @
hareleyman posted of his 5-seater. What I had been noticing is that the door opening was designed and made wider to make it easier for access to the 3rd row. Because of this, the cushion of the seat is fully exposed, as the photos show, without the wheel well extending past the back of the seat. It seems to me that this would make it possible to face away from the car with your legs against the sill of the door opening and simply sit straight down. Another good thing is that because there's no roof opening edge with the falcon wing doors open, you also don't need to worry about the back of your head hitting the edge of the roof. Unfortunately, no hand holds anywhere from what I understand. Tesla hasn't really paid much attention to the refinements of the design of the interior. They've concentrated of the driving experience, and man!, have they succeeded in that!
As I previously said, this is all speculation on my part (except the driving experience comment, I own a Model S), since I haven't been able to see a 5-seater in person yet. But it gives you something to think about and others can comment. I love that Titanium color, by the way. If it were still available, it's what I would be ordering. In fact, that's the leather i would pick as well. Hey,
@hareleyman, if you want to sell your car, let me know (not likely).
