So the centre console of the Tesla Model S saloon car is basically just going to be a big screen, controlling the air con, sounds and sat nav. The instrument panel will be a 12" screen, similar to the Range Rover/Jaguar systems I suppose. I wonder how readable it will be in bright sunlight though?

Clarkson has had a few cars on Top Gear with screens where he's lost the sat nav after pressing something else. The Nissan GTR in Japan was one, I think the other was the Ferrari 458 but not sure on that. It's got to be an issue with multi function screens controlling several things.
