A test run of the new car from Tesla has recently taken place in Germany. The vehicle is sure to be remembered for its excellent speed and manoeuvrability and its unusual steering wheel. However, whether all cars in this series will also include this kind of steering wheel remains to be seen.

The innovative shape of the steering wheel could be described as convenient, as it no longer obstructs the dashboard or blocks the view of the road. By contrast, there are no steering levers in the car, and all functions are performed solely by buttons. Drivers will need to get used to this as well as the other innovations.

Drivers who participated in the test run also noted the excessive thickness of the steering wheel and the difficulty in rotating it. Likewise, many complained about their hands getting tired during long driving stints. We will see whether or not the company fixes these problems or whether the new steering wheel from Tesla replaces the standard one.
