Tesla Motors Club
The new interior of the 2021 refresh MS has got me thinking. The stalks are gone completely and the steering wheel is not round. For a sedan, maybe those choices make fashion sense. For those of us who plan to use the CT as a work vehicle, I can foresee some issue with the deletion of stalks etc. Not to hash up the old "physical button" debate, the lack of certain features that should not require the use of a touchscreen is probably more important in a work truck that will get "down and dirty" in it's daily use.
Two cases immediately jump to the front of my mind:
-Not having a "Wheel" and trying to maneuver a trailer while in reverse can be cumbersome
-Most work gloves(at least mine) are not touchscreen friendly - I can see having to take my gloves off every time I need to do frequent tasks (changing the "gear", wipers, etc..)
Some of the above can be re-learned, but I'm sure there are some drop dead use cases that you gus can think of that are specific to (c)truck use where the current stalkless design is a non-starter.
Or maybe the CT is just the Tesla version of a "G" wagon - expensive and looks tough, but is really just a yuppie plaything.
(I hope not)
