Neither from Mercedes, nor from BMW, nor from Audi: The new Tesla interior engineer worked at Volvo

Have you ever been to a Tesla? If the answer is yes you will know what I am talking about and if it is negative, I will give it to you. It is not about minimalism - this is something that goes with taste - I am talking about materials and some finishes.

If a car costs base in Spain an astonishing 82,900 euros, what we ask, in addition to technology, is that it is a high-end vehicle and eye, not only that it appears ...

If you take a walk on the Internet and take a look at Youtube you will find dozens of videos of disgruntled buyers with crickets, various noises, plastic crunches and finished in some Model S and although on the one hand I am amazed by the technology of the brand -y Its commitment to the electrical - the truth is that on the other, I am very annoyed by the ovacionismo that is created around its products.

For you to see that I am not joking and that Tesla somehow recognizes the interiors - technological and minimalist yes, but of quality and questionable aspect - today we have learned that the former senior director of interior engineering of Volvo, Anders Bell, will join Tesla in an equivalent position as Electrek has been able to confirm in his LinkedIn profile.

Anders Bell has spent almost all his professional life leading the department in charge of the interiors of Volvo and the fact is that he has done nothing wrong, just have a look at the interiors of the new XC90, V90 or S90.

In addition to design, the department in which Anders Bell worked inside Volvo Cars was awarded by the Henry Ford Technical Award in 2003 for the design of the rear seats of the Volvo XC90 first generation - by the folding system that also created a compartment Completely flat load.

Before being promoted to an executive position, Bell was assigned for 4 years to China where he created the interior department of Volvo Cars China and oversaw the launch of the XC60 SUV.

With Tesla, Bell will have to work to improve the quality of the interior to match what people generally expect from a premium product.

Now wait to see what model will leave your signature, will it be in Model 3?

Additionally, if you need to purchase some car gadgets, you can search via Banggood website, which is one of the wholesale platform to provide affordable prices, such as 12v indicator light, 9006xs led bulb, etc.
