    One thing a yoke is not good for is if you are part of the FSD beta program. You're supposed to have your hands on or very near the steering wheel and be ready to take control at any time. Right, good luck doing that with a yoke when the FSD beta computer is doing the steering and the yoke is twisting and turning and jerking all around like it does many times when the computer is steering. With a round wheel you can let it slide through a loose grip but not with a yoke.
    By the way, the 7-Eleven near our house in Fresno California installed three Electrify America chargers about a year and a half ago so the news about 7-Eleven branded chargers coming to a lot more of their stores is interesting and exciting.

    The chief problem with the yoke is that it doesn’t lock @ 90 degrees in either direction; when turning the yoke to the 90 degree position you should be executing the tightest turning circle possible for the car.

    I am a wheel person, living in the foothills of the cascade mountains, we get mornings and evening of black ice along with the occasional snow, like this morning. I have had my 2wd Tesla and my Chevy Tahoe when not in 4wd, the rear starts to slide, especially on some corners I have to drive through. With the wheel I am very comfortable with handling the cars and stopping the slide , regaining control, not sure I would be so comfortable with the yoke, doing a panic steering. Oh yes I’m not drive real fast in these conditions, but we have areas due to tress, may not see sunshine and these spots can retain the ice for days or until the temperatures reach the mid 30’s, while areas with sunshine will melt quickly.

    My biggest problem with the yoke is the awful horn button. Try to find it a uickly when there’s an emergency. Tesla’s round wheel should have located a giant horn button in the middle like older model S. Rotation of yoke should have variable response with 180 degrees of maximum rotation.

    I sold my 2022 Tesla Model S because of the yoke. Not having the horn in the center of the wheel is a MAJOR safety defect. When i found myself in a situation where i had to immediatelly honk, my fingers couldnt find that tiny button! And, when doing turns i would often accidently honk! Lastly, I like to grab the steering wheel to enter the car and lower myself to the seat. but the way i park my car the yoke was always turned and it was too far away from me as i entered to use it. I replaced my MS with a superior car - BMW i4 edrive40.

    Lexus is introducing a better implementation - steer by wire, no mechanical connection between steering wheel and front axle, redundancy like in an airplane included.
    Different steering ratio dependent on the speed, synthetic feedback, level and comfort adjustable.
    Biggest difference to Tesla: you just need to turn 150° to each side, so no need to grab over. 😉
    More competition, more and better ideas. 👍

    It actually will get it's biggest perk for people not qualified for 7500 tax credit. It will be less expensive and less competition for demand from people qualified for tax credits.
    If Tesla drop the price of base Model 3 by $3000 from current price to be below $40k, it will be very attractive to people who cannot get tax credit anyway.

I feel Tesla is doing a disservice to the yoke by not creating a video on the proper technique for using it.

  • @apterachallenge

    This is all about Tesla managing the Osborne effect related to the upcoming next gen Tesla. To push as many Model 3's out the door as possible now in Q1, Tesla is pushing this narrative that the IRA incentive is going away. So what are they going to do in Q2 to make sales happen then? If the IRA incentive DOES go away, will there be another price cut to soften the blow? That would be my guess, but Tesla isn't going to tell you that now. And then what happens next year when the next gen comes out, which will presumably cannibalize Model 3 sales? A change in battery sourcing for the Model 3 to regain the IRA incentive? Or just more price cuts?

    I Have seen on some steering wheels belonging to handicapped people ... an attachment ... It's like a p enis, sorry, ... but it is ... and it protrudes perpendicular to the wheel itself, pointing to the driver ... it can be attached anywhere on the circumference of the 'wheel' ... it also 'rotates' ... so you can grab it (with one hand) at any time for 'slow' maneuvering, and it will give you full control of the steering yoke should you want to go this route ... Best of both worlds, as you will also retain the 'full-view' of the forward-look towards instruments, and the road.

    Great video. You 2 have great chemistry - quite relevant for a couple 😂 . Regarding Yoke: I have a Model 3 LR and so I have no experience with a yoke. My gut feeling is that I would love it IF it were based on steer by wire, as it stands now I am not so sure...
    We here i. europe now wait ao much on the wrranty extension because it is definitely worth it.

    Tesla will drop the price on the base model or switch to different battery chemistry to get incentive back. Don't run out and buy a Tesla base model 3 just yet if you're in the market for one.
