AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/31 Report--

According to a video released by foreign reviewer Marques Brownlee, it said in the video that Tesla Model S's new steering wheel seems to be completely contrary to driving, and that it can only hold one place when operating, which is very inconvenient, such as parallel parking. If you want to put one hand above the steering wheel, or if you want to change your position, I'm sorry, I can't. But Marques Brownlee said that the above shortcomings are not a big problem, habits can adapt, the real problem lies in the buttons on the steering wheel.

Because after the introduction of the new steering wheel, many basic functions operated by traditional buttons have to be controlled by touch-sensitive buttons, such as turn signals, headlights, wipers and so on. After driving for hundreds of miles, reviewer Marques Brownlee said he was still prone to mistakenly pressing the button when turning. In addition, it indicates the position of the horn control button. Traditional cars put buttons in the middle of the steering wheel, while Tesla's horn is controlled by touch buttons on the steering wheel, which is really complicated. As for the advantages of the new steering wheel, Marques Brownlee says it has a better line of sight with the new steering wheel, and the new design looks futuristic. Still, it says traditional buttons may be more practical than touch-sensitive buttons.

On January 28th, Tesla released the newly modified Tesla Model Splash X model, with obvious changes in appearance and interior, especially in the interior part, which tends to the design of Model 3 as a whole and becomes more simplified. The biggest change is that the new car uses a rectangular steering wheel. At the same time, even the shift lever of the new Model Sramp X model has been removed, said Tesla CEO Elon Musk (Elon Musk): the new Tesla will switch through a central control computer. As for the rectangular steering wheel, Musk said: I have been using this rectangular steering wheel for some time and think it is great.

Innovation is certainly a good thing, but for drivers, the rectangular steering wheel is still new, and I believe it will take some time for drivers to get used to it. Although intelligent cars have become a trend, Tesla's radical measures have also raised some questions about the mode of operation. After all, compared with traditional car companies, intelligent technology requires drivers to get used to it. Even in the eyes of some netizens, the current intelligent technology is not very mature, so users can not be fully trusted, and complex manual operating systems may make drivers lose the fun of driving traditional cars.
