> One magazine put a professional racing driver and car reviewer in a Tesla with a yoke steering wheel Tesla. Even on the race track, he hated it and wanted a standard steering wheel back in. That makes sense. Steering technique is taken seriously as a safety practice in racing. Honestly, steering technique should be taken more seriously in normal driving; for example the person in the lead photo in this article would be in a world of hurt if the airbag deployed with their arms crossed up like that. Gimmicky yoke wheels have repeatedly failed to catch on for most of a century, outside of goofy kit cars, dead end concepts, and a handful of out-there exotics. Even Saab gave up on trying to come up with a not-a-round-wheel steering gimmick that wasn't awful, after decades of trying.
