Tesla reintroduces its “bowtie” Yoke steering wheel with very slight modifications… but are they enough?
Tesla has begun deploying an improved version of the highly controversial steering wheel of the Model S sedan and Model X SUV. The new wheel is primarily equipped with a central horn, more stitching, and an overall improvement in build quality. As for the most significant modifications that could make it a desired accessory… There are none! So Tesla adds a horn and focuses on build quality, and that should be enough?
Tesla Holds on to the Yoke
An image of the updated steering wheel for the Model S and Model X was shared on X. As seen in the image, the new Yoke features a redesigned central area with a horn symbol beneath the “TESLA” lettering. The overall appearance still looks somewhat cheap and plastic, but it’s a matter of taste, and it must be acknowledged that it appears more refined.
Brand enthusiasts seem receptive to the charms of the new steering wheel and welcome the addition of this horn, which was previously a small button located at the top right of the Yoke, quite prone to accidental presses.
Beyond issues with the horn, Tesla Model S and Model X owners have also noticed that the original material tends to peel over time. Even with a manufacturer warranty exchange program, it’s inconvenient given the premium pricing of these vehicles.
