I don't have a strong position on this steering wheel, but the arguments here just seem like bullshit.
If steering wheels went from this shape to round you could write a similar article making up similar reasons why the status quo was better.
- Corrado 6y agoI think a lot of arguments against "new" things end up like this. I really like my Model Y and don't really have any complaints but it annoys me when people that haven't owned or even driven a Tesla come out of the woodwork saying "That is a terrible design! Why would anyone do that!?". These critics end up sounding like someone just introduced flush toilets and they can't possibly see how that's better: "You mean you have to flush?". Or perhaps Doctors washing their hands between patients: "Who has time for that!? I have people to cure!" I'm not saying that everything Tesla does or is doing is perfect, or even better. But to dismiss it out of hand, without even trying it, is mind-boggling. Case in point, the most recent Tesla 3/Y update changed the on-screen GUI quite a bit and a lot of people got upset over it. Sure there are things that I didn't like about it, at first, but I reasoned that there are a lot of pretty smart people behind it and they probably had a reason for the change. Give it a chance. Tesla has a lot of smart people and there is probably a reason behind this new steering wheel. I'm willing to give it a chance. If it turns out that, in practice, this new design is terrible or dangerous I'll join the chorus of naysayers shouting it down. We'll see.
