> The Porsche is a premium luxury vehicle
Totally agree. The Porsche outside my office window belongs to the CEO of the neighbour company. The Tesla belongs to the chairman of the board. They are both up in luxury territory because they are both really expensive cars.
Tesla wants to fight BMW and possibly but less importantly Porsche - their interiors and build quality needs to match the price tag. No exceptions.
- saiya-jin 11y agothis - it's nice and all to try to compare yourself to some market leader, but Tesla is no match to Porsche in overall driving experience, and won't be in 5 years (theoretically it could catch up, but its extremely unlikely). BMW is much, much better comparison (or Mercs)
- coldpie 11y agoAll modern interiors have awful touch screens and shitty UIs and so are less usable than my 2004 Accord's interior. If you put a computer monitor in your dash, I am not buying your car.

- coldpie 11y agoI know. I'm hoping some car maker gets their head out of their ass and brings back physical knobs and an uncluttered UI, even with the stupid screen.
- germinalphrase 11y agoCurrent model Honda Fit maintains a small screen for displaying radio/bluetooth settings + backup camera while all other controls are traditional knobs/buttons. I prefer it despite only being available on the 'economy' trim model as a large touch screen is embedded in everything else.
