Tesla Brings Back the Round Steering Wheel for the Model S & X
Tesla recently announces that it is going to bring back the round steering wheel to both its Model X and Model S EVs. It is going to be offered as an option for those that prefer not to have the yoke version. The yoke originally conjured up a diversion between many Tesla fans.
Some believed that it was not a practical option when it comes to one-handed driving or that it may feel unnatural when driving at slow speeds. Others even argued that it may be unsafe when driving situations call for quick maneuvers. In addition to the original launch of the yoke, the company replaced all of the stalks with some forced touch buttons.
