Hopefully the interior of this model does not look like s* too.

This common comment is funny to me because I _like_ Tesla's design sensibilities for their interiors. I'll be the first to say the fit, finish, and materials could all be better, but what they are doing visually is clean and minimal, which I really like.

All that said, they hired Anders Bell away from Volvo a while ago specifically to help with interior quality. This may be the first project that really has his mark on it.

It’s clean but feels like a Hyundai and that is in the best case scenario, which works for the model 3 especially if they can bring it’s price down even more but for the model s it’s a bit shameful.

I can't wait till this comes out. We're currently stuck between a 3, S and X. I have two 3's on order but the 3 isn't going to be big enough for my wife who schleps kids around all day (SAHM & very active homeschooler). The X is too expensive, it's more expensive than a decked out Cadillac Escalade (her current but aging ride). The S is nice but not as easy to get in and out of if you have a child in a car seat. A crossover would presumably ride a little higher than an S and be roughly as spacious inside as an X, and hopefully will be more minimalist inside and lower performance like the 3 bringing the price down.
