Sorry. Probably not the best term but I don't know what to call them. The guy at SC said Tesla is putting alcantara in the place where you put your hand to pull the door closed.
That would be easy to retrofit.Sorry. Probably not the best term but I don't know what to call them. The guy at SC said Tesla is putting alcantara in the place where you put your hand to pull the door closed.
Also sorry for getting us a bit off topic.
Thanks @jelloslug for sharing. MUCH appreciated!
Tesla's seats?
Yeah, I agree with @AmpedRealtor, there is something a tad bit off with the latest round of Tesla seating. I mean, this seat update is better than the old one as a fundamental design (bolstering is nice), but at the same time the workmanship and maybe the proportions too look a little... off. More off than some of Tesla's older implementations, actually.
The new Model X 5/7 seater second row has this issue as well... It is hard to explain, but it seems to me whomever is doing the latest round of Tesla's seating (they say in-house but what does that exactly mean...), isn't perhaps implementing the designs quite as proficiently than some of the older ones have been.
Stitching appears poorly executed and the overall design is underwhelming. It strikes me as yet another mediocre stab by Tesla at something that almost every other manufacturer is able to get right. It's unfortunate that such a "techie" car still cannot get the basics right after almost 5 years. It's better than what my car shipped with, yes, but it's still disappointing for a car in this price class.
It sounds more like you are complaining more about personal taste rather than a real deficiency with the car.
