Tesla’s official website dubs the Model S, X, and 3 as “premium” electric cars. Nevertheless, Tesla’s electric cars such as the Model S have proven to be formidable entries in the luxury segment, particularly against mainstays from legacy automakers such as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and the BMW 7 Series, which are characterized by plush amenities and expensive interior accents. How then, are Tesla’s premium vehicles, which adopt a minimalistic theme and an almost spartan interior, performing so well in a market where more is usually better? By invoking a sense of luxury through deep software integration, of course.
To say that Tesla’s electric cars have their own fair share of critics is an understatement. Among the criticisms directed at the company’s vehicles is the fact that they do not have the same luxurious features found on other vehicles in their class. Critics of Tesla would be quick to point out that the company’s vehicles are not fitted with the same premium materials found in their German rivals. Tesla’s cars continue to sell, however, because as those who have found themselves behind the wheel of a Tesla know, the company’s electric cars are just an entirely different breed of vehicle, offering a completely different driving experience.
