Tesla Model 3 Ramp Up Aims to Compete with BMW 3 and Mercedes C

Not so much. I've been in a Tesla - the dashboard feels cheap, gives, creaks under any weight (resting your hand on it). "Plastic-y". Similar with door internals.

My 2015 Audi? Not even a little bit. The build of the Tesla feels like that of my old Altima on the inside.

The dash electronics? Certainly nice hardware, at least.

I'm all for Tesla to succeed, but I was very shocked when I drove in a Model S. It feels like a budget Volkswagen inside, it's several levels behind Mercedes/BMW/Audi cars of the same price. The dashboard tablet feels like a cheap 2010 android tablet. It can't even scroll a grid of images without severe lag. Very disappointing.
