Great pic & angle to show the cargo area with the 3rd row in place. Along with the frunk, that's quite a bit...
Thanks. I asked where the compressor hookup is an the HR representative there did not know as this was still a prototype. Same for the spare tire.

clearly on the R1T the compressor hookup is clear:

I think I like the tan seat color vs the dark color from the R1T

Yes, great shot! There has been some confusion (at least for me ) if the R1S has (or will have) the "3 USB-C and 3 110V outlets" like in the back of the R1T bed on the driver-side. Did you or anybody else happen to notice them on the R1S and their placement? Similarly for the air compressor. I know this has been mentioned before somewhere in this forum but I'm just not recalling where this landed.

UPDATE: Oops, my bad. I missed your earlier post re: the air compressor - "I asked where the compressor hookup is an the HR representative there did not know as this was still a prototype."
Still wondering about the outlets and USB ports in the R1S ... unless I overlooked that too. :whatsgoingon:

UPDATE2: Checked my notes from the Normal event back in October 2019 - "R1S will have USB and power outlets available in the cargo area like R1T, but no air compressor." (FYI @Lmirafuente @skyote and others)

I really hope they include an accessible compressor *attachment in the R1S. The air suspension requires a compressor, so I hope they can find the right place to let us use it in the R1S.

Browsing the Instagram photos of the event, I came across this small detail:

I've seen the cup holders before, but right below it seems there's a handle for more pull-out storage that I haven't seen before.

Thanks for the great pics! Iā€™m pretty sold on the green R1S but the white looks better than I thought it would.

Excited about the wireless charging pad too; my wife routinely is digging in our console for the charging cord. Expecting there will also be Sirius/XM access w/ the infotainment system.

I agree with you the white is striking. I have not seen the green in person. This R1S is great In White.
