Love my car, hope Tesla can get as great!
Had a long talk with a very nice girl from Tesla Norway today about this, and it got me quite convinced that we arent being told the real deal here.
She had obviously been prepped with a long story here loosely translated from my memory:
Reasons for questioning the info provided:
1. Where are all the customers that are complaining? Normally we see them here on the forum.
2. Why no info?
3. From pictures the folding difference is minimal at best so sound like a stretch.
But mainly the explanation was so rehearsed that they have obviously had sessions prepping for this. Gut-feeling is that there is something going on behind the scenes that she had no info on at all. She even commented that this was all new to them as well so they were scrambling to gather information.
Bottom line I got confirmation that my car had finished production before the cut-off date, but she needed some time to confirm 100% that the car had nextgen backseats. So most likely good news for me personally.
No one will be getting those seats on non-produced cars according to her. So I suggest those not happy about that to contact Tesla asap so that they are aware of the obvious demand for those seats.
edit: @conger your post just confirms my belief that something fishy is going on here. I've seen several owners praising the new rear seats, but noone complaining...
She had obviously been prepped with a long story here loosely translated from my memory:
We at Tesla have listened to our customers in America. Many customers there complained about seats not folding flat. For that reason we have discontinued the next gen rear seats from a specific date. Blah blah blah much of the same over and over.
