Love the new heated steering wheel but boy does it get hot.
Has anyone else noticed how hot it gets ?
Maybe Tesla could give us a Hi and a Low setting.

By that logic I would not need three settings on my seat heaters
or temperature controls on the climate system for heat or A.C.

Tough crowd to please - first complaints about no steering wheel heat now it's too hot.

I have noticed when I first hop in my car after preconditioning with the steering wheel on, it's quite hot (almost uncomfortable). Once I drive a little bit, the temperature seems to regulate itself to a comfortable level and stay that way the rest of the drive and I almost always leave it running.
I have never owned a car with a heated steering wheel before so I can't really compare. I will get sweaty hands though sometimes when driving which seems so bizarre to me (personal problems I guess!).
An update on the heated steering wheel. Was out for a drive today in and out of the car several times.
Left Steering wheel heat on the whole time and after a while it did indeed settle down and produce
less heat. Not too hot, not too cold, just right. Thank you Magnetic Flux

What is the “born on” date of your Mode Y? I was told by my SA that any Model Y produced after Jan 7 has heated steering wheel...

yes, I am in that camp too. My X wheel gets too hot and it would be a nuisance to constantly cycle it on and off. I just turn it on before I drive along with letting the rest of the interior warm up and then hop in the car, turn it off and drive. Would be nice to have a software option to regulate it.
So far Tesla has not announced an upgrade option for the heated steering wheel.Hi, I'm a new member in Shelburne, VT and I love my 2020 Y! I do really miss the heated steering wheel I had in my Mercedes and am wondering if I can get my Y steering wheel adapted for heat? Of course it's in the 2021
