i3 has multiple interior trims/looks, and both the list and color choices had evolved over time. Currently:
- Deka has (dark) grey plastic interior accents and seats with blue accents
- Mega has (dark) brown plastic interior accents with light light grey cloth seats with brown accents
- Tera has (dark) brown wood interior accents with brown leather/cloth seats
- Giga has (dark) brown brown wood interior accents with light grey cloth seats with brown accents

In the past, eucalyptus wood was part of either Mega or Tera package, but now you get eucalyptus only if you also buy "technology" package.

Personally, I don't care for wood in my car (save it for the bedroom), so I prefer Deka interior.

YMMV,
