Tesla could learn a lot from Apple. The touchscreen UI is extremely dated. It reminds me of Windows Media Player. http://i.imgur.com/Gsqslrd.jpg http://i.img

Realistically, while Tesla's UI might be awful, it's better than a lot of them and moreover, not a major point of competition: few people buy cars for the UI. Dealing with the additional organization overhead doesn't seem to offer much of a gain.
- XorNot 13y agoSmartphone UIs do not map to cars well at all. All those slidy transition effects? Distractions. Icons? Useless - you need icons and text. Long presses? Unusable. Apple can bring nothing to the table here, and importantly there is no "Apple Inside" branding which will affect whether someone buys a $60,000 vehicle. Apple is used to prodicts with a frequent model swap, not big capital outlays.
