Do they also penailze reflective surfaces? So much glossy "piano black" nonsense being popular at the moment. So much sunlight that gets reflected from all over the car. It shouldn't be necessary to wrap the inside of the car when new.

Like Tesla - I really love Tesla 3 LR powertrain, power delivery, charging is done nicely etc. but the controls for driver are so utterly non-driver friendly - like stocks, automatic wipers that simply do not work, speedo, changing "gears" etc. that was so insufferable I did not buy it :(
