If they cut the price by 20k, addressed customer service and brought back cloth seats that might be sufficient.
It really is as simple as this, the market is and always will be limited when it comes to this price range. The M3 will continue to be the more realistic option for the average consumer willing to push their budget a little bit to get into this technology. Many who could afford to push it even further aren't going to see the need unless the MS is redesigned to be a significantly better vehicle/better technology than the M3, currently that is simply not the case. Maybe distinguish the Performance models even more for those willing and able to go well over $100k for a vehicle, but keep the base MS closer to M3 pricing for those just wanting a more full-size sedan.Ummm...drop the price...so normal people can afford it.
I am not upgrading unless the new car has:
ventilated seats
AM radio
pano roof
more color and interior choices would be nice
- Free supercharging that follows the car
- Not throw any curve balls regarding sudden changes of pricing etc on new models
- Don't dump the prices on inventory
Maybe it's time Tesla brings the new flagship model above Model S. Or maybe this is their big picture as the Model S and X price is getting lower. If this is their plan, then the current Model S doesn't need to be drastically different. It still well competes with 5 series or E class. Not so much with upper class 7 and S.
Model 3 competes with BMW 3/4 series, Audi A3/4, Mercedes C Class. Not so much surprise here.
Media tend to compare Model S with BMW 6/7 series, Mercedes S class, Audi A7/8. However, many people think the Model S is a lot more comparable to BMW 5 series and E class Audi A5/6, due to size and total ownership cost etc. Also they think that way because they feel the interior of Model S is not competing with that of the S class. (Personally I prefer austere Model S interior more. YMMV)
If Tesla brings up the new flagship model with awesome exterior like Model S, much better luxury interior that caters to many people's taste, slightly longer and bigger cabin, 450+ miles (at least 120kWh), faster supercharger, solid FUSC (no more flip flopping) to owners, Panoramic roof, and maybe 0-60 closer to low 2 seconds, better warranty, then I bet that will crush the 7 Series and S class like in 2015-2016.
2. Introduce a premium customer service option for S owners (always able to get someone on the phone, guaranteed loaners, guaranteed service appts within, say, 2 weeks). Tesla has now developed a bad reputation in this area so they need to do something to reassure prospective buyers.
