Design aspects you don't like

Curious as to why you don't like the glass roof as I have one on order. I would definitely have preferred it to be able to open and be a sunroof. That's the reason I haven't bought a new Tesla - no more sunroofs and my 2015 has one. Please dm me or elaborate. Thanks!

Love the glass roof! And it’s not getting hotter in the car or brighter then a solid roof. I would have wished it to be able to open.

I find sunlight and heat from an overhead window annoying. I have kept my sunroof closed/covered for 20 years now, never open it. When I drove the electric Mustang with the glass roof, I found the sun somewhat irritating. Just personal preference - I prefer not to be in sunlight when I drive. Similarly, when I drive at night, I do not like to have the dome light lit.

I really don't understand why some people like the glass roof, but many do. I suppose it takes all kinds...

Now I am jealous, 18min charging, but how big was the batt? Love the console going back and forth and reclining seats. But that cars (to me) are emotion.. I have nothing with this brand..

Being in Florida, cool seats are really nice, so I wish those were an option. We’ve ordered a GT and I’d like to have a rear spoiler and the GT badge on the rear of the car was lighted. Over all, I can’t wait for ours.

Well, here in Sunny San Diego I use my sunroof just about every day, even if just to vent and let in some fresh air. It's especially wonderful though when cruising down by the beach. The reason I haven't bought a new Tesla in 6 years is that they did away with the sunroof. I was a reservation holder for the new Roadster which was advertised to have "T-tops," but I doubt that is going to be made soon, if ever. So I cashed in that deposit and MME here I come, even with no sunroof. I just wanted a smaller car as a DD and this fits that spot very well! I'm excited! My first car was a 1964 1/2 Red Mustang that had that lovely petrol smell and rusty floorboard, and I'm happy to circle back with an EV now 40 years later! Hoping the GT lives up to its name and maybe a sunroof or convertible is in the future for the brand.

My first was also a Ford - a '71 LTD, forty years ago. It had a bit of rust, but no smell. And no sunroof!

Have not owned a Ford since. I hope the electric Mustang does not disappoint. It's sure to be better than the LTD.

No physical knobs for the climate controls. The slider is way too small and fickle to be adjusting the temperature when driving on concrete roads and your hand is bouncing around. I can only adjust the temperature at stoplights.

I don't like the virtual slider either. But fortunately the +/- icons stay in place down near the corner, so it's pretty easy to just ignore the slider and hit + or - a time or two. And being in the corner, it's easy to just grab the corner to steady your hand and just touch with your thumb of finger.

- more information in the dash, such as music playing, power in/out, cars to the left/right of the car when in cruise control, maybe battery/motor temps
- either easier access or physical button to rear access
- a maintenance screen so i can keep track of wipers/tire rotations.
- Better ambient lighting, why no rear lights?
- heat pump, the excuse that it isn't worth it is really dumb if you know how they work.
- better 360 camera, its good but not audi/bmw good.
- color hud
- the infotainment screen remembering the expanded view point when i start the car

I'm sure there will be more, i'm a very picky user. But this car is still one of the best car's i've ever driven.

Can you also say "Set the temp at 72º"?

Honestly I don’t understand why a lot of people are stuck on the hatch button. Like, the buttons on the hatch… and if you have the foot sensor it’s even easier. You can even use the door keypad to open it if you really want.

My sedan has a lockable trunk release button and I keep it locked(deactivated) at all times -fob opening only.

The foot activated trunk worked at the dealership but has not worked since. What am I missing? Doors are unlocked so I don’t get it. Shouldn’t it even open even if doors are locked but I have the fob?

You must have the fob or PaaK on you for the foot activated hatch to work.
