Does the S steer by wire?

[brkaus]

If your sitting on the passenger seat, it's steer-by-wire with a circular position indicator inside the vehicle.

Sorry, couldn't help it

If you autocross your car you will occasionally beat the assist. Definitely not steer by wire as the assist momentarily fights you. If you don't regularly slide your car around with traction control off you will never experience it.

A pure "steer by wire" would make it impossible to steer during an electrical failure.

Won’t matter as it’s an electric car - nothing will work But seriously, airbus planes are all fly by wire. The robo taxi will run by wire and be fail safe so why not ?

Also, the extra tooling costs and logistics involved in manufacturing lhd and rhd vehicles would be vanish so it would be a good thing to do.
