I believe the $1000 was changed either yesterday or today.Oh wow... when did they change the Yoke price to 1000 USD?
I got my car and I would have gladly paid them 1000 for the WHEEL.... glad I got it for free... I would never pay 250 for the Yoke.. . I considered it only once for the look, and thought 250 USD is fine... But 1000 USD, no way.
It was 1 or 2 days ago. I hope the reason for the change is for the V2. I got in for 250 and I hope when my build becomes available it might just have the V2 version.I believe the $1000 was changed either yesterday or today.
Definitely not a Model 3 option.Does anybody else think this price increase is the prelude to dropping the yoke completely?
Is the yoke an option on M3 Highland?
When I picked up my car, they told me that 9 out of 10 Model orders are spec'd with the wheel. There is just no interest in the Yoke apparently.Does anybody else think this price increase is the prelude to dropping the yoke completely?

Only the purest of ElonHuffers ever had any interest to begin with. Bad idea is bad.When I picked up my car, they told me that 9 out of 10 Model orders are spec'd with the wheel. There is just no interest in the Yoke apparently.
I bet that the standard round wheel would generate more sale and people would pay for it if they made the wheel cost money to option.Only the purest of ElonHuffers ever had any interest to begin with. Bad idea is bad.
Yep. They can then justify axing it due to “low take rate”.Definitely not a Model 3 option.
And yeah, it’s eventually gonna go away. They’ll just keep increasing the tax on making bad decisions until nobody does.
Great idea and would not go back to round wheel as long as Yoke is an available. Just don’t get the negative on the Yoke. Think it is awesome.Only the purest of ElonHuffers ever had any interest to begin with. Bad idea is bad.
If the wheel is blocking the instrument cluster then the car/wheel/dashboard are suffer from poor design and there’s no compensating for poor engineering. Otherwise you’re spot on In your assessment.There is nothing the yoke does better than a wheel other than not blocking the dash display/gauge cluster
I got 2 of them for 1500First standard, then free after round was standard, then $250, now $1000. What a yoke

Yeah, change to change isn't always a good thing, but there are reasons to abandon the old tried and true wheel.Change simply for the sake of change isn’t always a good thing. A change in idea or design from traditional ways things are done should be done to improve usability, not to make it worse. Especially for something that is a basic vehicle function that everyone expects to behave a certain way.
There is nothing the yoke does better than a wheel other than not blocking the dash display/gauge cluster, which might be more of an issue for some people than others. I’ve personally never had a problem with that in any vehicle I’ve driven.
One could maybe argue a yoke is more beneficial with a steer by wire system where the angle of rotation of the yoke is more limited (like Lexus is introducing) but it’s still an answer to a question no one asked with the big downside of increased input lag.
There is nothing that going stalkless does better other than reduce the number of parts and costs for manufacturing.
I understand some people like it just for the aesthetics and just to be “different” (or they are convincing themselves to like it because they think Tesla can do no wrong), but I haven’t seen any argument that they are functionally any better. These things should be instantly intuitive and natural to use for anyone that sits in the drivers seat and not require any “getting used to”.
