I'm not sure I'd agree. The much of the interior and door handles felt very low quality to me. Theres just too much creaking/give on a light touch.
The central console is also pretty underwhelming. It's UI is gaudy and slow. The maps stutters and lags like a cheap ass Android phone from 2010 and the display isn't particularly bright or high contrast.
I think BMW is doing the best right now. Their UI is a bit gaudy too but at least it's responsive.
- zippergz 11y agoThe interior of the Model S feels much cheaper than any other $100k car I've been in, and also worse than most $50k cars I've been in. There's no possible way I'd rank the Model S as the best manufactured car based on the interior.
- vvanders 11y agoThat's because they sadly put a Tegra3 in it which was one of the worst performing SoCs from that era.
- mdorazio 11y agoWhat's even sadder is what the other manufacturers put in theirs. A prominent OEM I recently worked with was planning to put a significantly worse SOC than the Tegra3 in their 2017 head units to save a few bucks.
- vvanders 11y agoYup, the few $$$ are usually not worth it from a customer perspective. Even worse in the case of Tesla as they need to drive a 1920x1200 panel which is quite a strain on the Tegra3, I'm honestly surprised it's as fluid as it is.
- andromeduck 11y agoYeah it's really sad they're not willing to put in the $10-50 more on a $100k car.
- greglindahl 11y agoThere's a Tegra3 for the dash, and a Tegra4 for the 17".
