Deliberate delay? After all, can't have anyone actually getting in quicker than the FWD allow in the more premium Model X.

Wasn't he just reaching down and pressing the switch to adjust the position of the power seat before getting into the car?

No, watch the video again. As hit sits down he turns he shows his wrist like a magician (voila!) with the card in his hand to pass through the door frame sensor.
...this is not ideal. Why you would make it more complicated than being in your pocket like everyone else is beyond me.

Take the tinfoil hat off. You are reading waaay too much into that video. I see nothing to indicate what you say. There is no magic flip of the wrist, it's just normal movement of what I would expect to see if a taller person sat down with the steering wheel set low like it was.No, watch the video again.

I think people are way over analyzing this.
Yeah, he adjusted the seat, got into the car and placed the card in the cupholder. There's no mystery there.
Also, the car is unlocked and open, so why would he need to do anything? Strange speculation.

I fixed my picture. Maybe it's not a flip but it's an unnatural pose. His right arm is completely across his body for exposing the card. It looks on purpose. Why would be go out of his way to show the card as he got into the car?

I disagree. I think you are seeing what you want to see. I can see why you think it may look unnatural but quite sure it's wasn't too him. He looks tall and clearly the seat and wheel were set for short person.

I've watched the video multiple times (as well as your screenshot) and it looks to me that he was just tucking his right hand, forearm and elbow close to his chest to clear the steering wheel as he sat down. The "presentation" of the card was just incidental to the fact that he was holding it in his right hand.

Shouldn't the discussion above this post I'm writing now be in another thread? "Keyless entry" or something. I came to this thread for something else.

Already discussed here:I haven't seen anyone commenting on this yet. What is that? Some sort of option for an instrument cluster? Pop-up for HUD? (ducking)
I don't think I've seen this in any RC or alpha cars.
Model 3 Dashboard... What are we looking at?

It's the cutout that allows the steering wheel to telescope up and down, you can clearly see it and many pictures when the steering wheel is in the up position. Thhis one happens to be down slightly leaving the gap. The shading seems to be related to the sunroof overhead.I haven't seen anyone commenting on this yet. What is that?
