Of course some do. The point is the vast majority do NOT want the interior of a Tesla.
They want everything in the same darn place that 99% of cars have it, with physical switches to be able to change things so you can just feel what you are doing without taking your eyes off the road.
Most people see the interior of a Tesla as a complete gimmick.
- bryanlarsen 4y agoI trust HN's opinion on many things, but definitely not on their opinion of what the vast majority of people think is fashionable. HN is solidly "overstuffed black leather couch" in their fashion sense.
- jeltz 4y agoI would say the other way round. Hacker News feels like a Danish modern crowd. Personally I am all for minimalism but Teslas are plain ugly.
- darksaints 4y agoI consider myself to be minimalist/modern in my choices, and in my opinion the Tesla is a garbage nightmare that took all of the complexity away from physical buttons and just shoved into a hard to navigate touchscreen menu with poor visual placement. I guess that makes me an overstuffed black leather couch type in your opinion.
- tgeorge 4y agoI think a lot of car manufacturers have gone the path of no physical switches and it's becoming irritating. You shouldn't have to navigate screens to adjust your hvac while driving.
- frant-hartm 4y agoVW admitted it was a mistake and will go back to physical buttons with next gen of their models.
- twoWhlsGud 4y agoThis move gives me hope that by the time an EV is practical in my corner of the world it'll be less annoying, too : )
- gernb 4y agotheir sales indicate otherwise
- eatsyourtacos 4y agoNo they don't. We have the small rich population that want a new fancy toy. I've seen it with everyone I know that has a Telsa. "Oh look how geeky I am, this is so neat I have a big screen!". That is the insane minority.
