Tesla is in the final throes of launching the Model S. The all-new, all-electric sedan starts at $57,400, has a 160-mile range and has features like a 17-inch touchscreen display, 19-inch wheels, an optional all glass panoramic roof and a microfiber interior. You can, of course, upgrade to a $97,900 Model S Signature Performance that has twice the battery life, a 4.4-second 0-60 time, carbon-fiber accents, Nappa leather interior, a 300-mile range with a top speed of 130 and standard 21s with high performance tires.
But is it the best sedan, nay, the best car in the world? Tesla thinks so...

exterior and technology is impressive but the interior looks like a kit car IMO

That's a lot of talk for a car that nobody has really experienced, much less driven, yet.

The interior materials/quality could use A LOT of work!
But dynamically, they can make a strong case......

Dangerous claim to make. Now people will be looking even more for faults.
At that price it's up against some seriously good hardware made by companies with far more experience and resources.
I think they should stick with the best electric car in the world and hope it works.

Looks like a fusion to me.

I'd rather get the real Fusion Energi. Both have that awful virtual non-tactile buttons interfaces anyways.

I Like the exterior styling, but I'll pass on the TV screen in the center console.
