On today's TMC Podcast, we ask the question "What is the Tesla Cybercab?". Join us on YouTube live at 1PM and participate in the chat.
Agreed on the leather - particularly around the instrument binnacle.
Is it an option? What about the microfibre types?

OK, these photos are better than the first sneak peak we got days ago.
1) I'm glad I opted for the carbon fiber interior instead of the chunky leather in those parts. Now I'd like to see a photo with CF to be sure.
2) I still don't like the large leather bezel around the VDS. Thin bezels look much more modern. They should have done the center console like their computer renderings. That would have looked much better.

I’m so chuffed; this is the spec I’ve got on order – I love it!
I especially like the change from rev counter to power gauge; that’s going to be fun to watch / wince at.
The bump next to the HVAC is probably the microphone, I thought maybe hvac cabin sensor to make ‘proper’ hvac but I don’t think so; doesn’t look like the other controls have changed.
I noticed that it's in-complete; the door sills are missing.

Wait. Why isn't there color on part of the steering wheel? That's one of the best parts of the executive leather look.
Yes, that's what it is.
Yes.
Those are installed just before delivery so they don't get scuffed up.
Some more interior shots:

There appears to be orange contrast stitching there, so I assume that VIN 501 has executive leather. But the steering wheel is plain. I thought the steering wheel was supposed to be two tone to match the accent color?

That is such a HUGE improvement over the previous design. I love it.

I like this interior setup and look. It is worth the wait vs the 2008 MY for me:smile:
Tdave,
I spoke with Tesla yesterday. There is a slight delay in carbon fiber interior parts and thus expected my production to start last week of June.

Direct drive @ it's best - fixed RPM per MPH at any given time. That's just so darn cool...

How much of the info on this display is/could be duplicated on the central VDS?
And it also seems to be a standard component, so expensive to change/center on top of everything else:

See fourth photo down
EU spec 2010MY binnacle:
Besides the unfortunate "kp/h" on the speedo, in the off state the needle on the power gauge should either be resting on the pin or at TDC.
