I love them and I was thrilled to discover that the Tesla Model 3 has them when I bought mine.
- Hamuko 6y agoWhy? I've never found any upsides in the design and it just makes it harder to know if your signal is on and to cancel it.
- abenga 6y agoThe flashing green arrow in your dash and the clicking sound can tell you whether your signal is on or not.
- Hamuko 6y agoOne of them requires you to look at your dash and not the road, and the other one is easily drowned out by other sounds. Again, I fail to see the upsides in BMW's (former) design.
- kingnothing 6y agoI've never had an issue knowing my blinker was on or not. Honestly, the action just feels better to my hand, like the difference in typing on a mechanical keyboard vs a membrane keyboard. There's also the practical benefit that the stalk is always in the same position, so you don't have to fumble around to toggle high beams while the blinker is on or vice versa.
