She did try to say that they would be swayed by the low running costs but I think that people still want some quality finish as well.

The quality finish is fine for 99% of the population David - as good as Mercedes and most others. I can probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of critical comments on interior quality that I've seen from Tesla owners on this. And that's from a very active group with more than a thousand owners, the great majority of whom have very high expectations and/or deep pockets.

We're generally a very picky lot on here (and some more than most ) - and have been thoroughly spoiled by D2 quality
