I’m told by a friend at Tesla. It’s the same stopping power as our current vehicles.

I wouldn’t expect that to have changed. The ability to stop more times is what will have changed.

Interesting, I’ve never been a huge fan of the yoke but I’m very used to it now.
Props to Tesla for offering the choice between wheel and yoke. However, the wheel looks more fitting of a rental car than a sedan supercar

Its interesting that they changed the caliper not the rotor, since the latter is the bigger issue according to the aftermarket at this point.
The front calipers are fine but the rear calipers on current production is a single piston floating setup, which can't really be changed easily in the aftermarket because of the integrated parking brake. Having monoblock multipiston calipers in the rear would provide a better base to start with if you are swapping rotors anyway.
But what the car really needs is better pads and fluid, not calipers.
Now if they could just bring back the pano I’d be ready to order

Wish they had included stalks! Even paddles behind the wheel would be an upgrade. Wonder if it has a center horn?

While you are wishing, how about some good looking 19" or 20" wheels. Quite a shame for a fully configured $160K vehicle.
Did like there is no front license plate holder !!

Wonder if this is because they are finally shipping the refreshed Model S and X in Europe and they have more stricter safety regulations.
Really hoping they would offer this as a retrofit for current owners.

Looks like it's only for the US market right now because that's the first thing I checked and it's not available in my account.
But this gives me hope that it would be available here. I have a service appointment today so I might check with the SC.
EDIT : It's now available in my CAD account. It's priced about the same as most aftermarket options, but at least it's a Tesla option.
Looks like there is no way to get the yoke one if you order the round wheel
Thus, if you order yoke, you can get the retrofit later on
That means- order the yoke
