Leaked Tesla product sheet reveals Model 3 information
The other product comparisons seem to be really trying to steer customers toward the more expensive Model S, noting that it has over 1,500 possible configurations, compared to less than 100 in the Model 3. The S gets free Supercharging (if the customer uses a referral when purchasing), while the 3 is pay-per-use. The chart even distinguishes wait times for delivery, which are 30 days or less for the S, and more than a year for the 3. Then there's the "Premium Features" box, which is left entirely blank for the Model 3. That means it won't get a Smart Air Suspension, auto-presenting door handles, or HEPA filter (which means no Bioweapon Defense Mode). At least Autopilot will be as good.
Even on Twitter, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has told at least one excited potential Model 3 customer that they'd be better off in a new Model S.

@jetkohli I'd highly recommend upgrading to latest Model S (which is approx version 4). Only if you really want a smaller sedan, should you get a 3.

If the 3 ends up having the spartan interior we've seen well, my interest in the car will be next to zero. Shame because I really want an electric and I like the exterior styling of the 3 and Tesla in general. Maybe I'm wrong but it is starting to look like the 3 is running up against the cost ceiling and as a result Tesla is being forced to make too many compromises.
