Luxury is build quality: not just a list of features, but the care and effort taken in assembling all the parts into a car: tolerances, alignments, finish quality.
Tesla fails all, with frequent misaligned panels, paint bubbling, ill-fitting parts, etc. It has software bells and whistels, but shitty build quality for the hardware.
20+ years ago, we did a trade-off in the datacenter, replacing single piece of expensive hardware with multiple copies of cheap hardware, with software to patch over the deficiencies. That doesn't work as well when the product is a single piece of hardware.
With some smart software, I can run 3 servers at 50% uptime each, and get 100% uptime. I can't get one nicely assembled car from two shitty ones.
I've not heard of build quality described as luxury. I think for most people functionality and bodily integrity is a basic requirement of a car, not a luxury item.
You're not buying a new car every day. As long as you have one good car, it doesn't matter very much to you how badly the other ones of the same model are built.
