    That interior is fantasy land. The final version will have airbags, seatbelts, air ventilation etc. I doubt it will have an egg holder. It will have lots of scratchy plastic and probably fabric or foam selectively glued in place to distract from the overall cheap feel. If they keep the bench seats they’ll probably still have to put a split so the driver / passenger are independently adjustable.

      “Scratchy plastic” … why does everything have to be luxury or else it is trash? When did this trend start? Affordable cars need to be robust, practicable, efficient and well … affordable. They don’t need luxury materials. Hard plastic with selective fabric and foam where it matters is perfectly fine and serviceable. You don’t sit on your door side surface and you don’t hug your dashboard or interior car floor, do you?
