This model has a dangerous yoke steering wheel. I imagine how you can catch the empty space with your hand on a turn.

I have a refresh Model S and have leased BMW 5 Series for years. There is nothing dangerous about the Yoke steering wheel. It only took about a day to get used to it and love having no stalks.

There are a lot of cool things that Tesla does and they have stepped up their game in the refresh S, however I still think I prefer my 2021 5 Series more. Only have owned the Tesla for 3 weeks now, so will give it some more time before I really know.

Perfect example of function following form. The yoke is clearly less functional yet the fanbois will still act blind to its limitations.

Yoke aside- I think it should be illegal to have such a small, flush horn button on the spoke of the "wheel." A regular user might develop muscle memory enough to find the horn button in an emergency situation, but an occasional user would struggle to use this safety function in an emergency.

People who buy the Plaid really only care about the performance, as this Carwow video clearly demonstrates.
