Tesla’s Design Changes Confuse Drivers, Undercut EV Quality

Tesla no longer stands above other electric vehicles in quality because head-scratching design changes on its cars, such as removing turn-signal stalks, have frustrated its owners and lowered its score in a bellwether quality survey.

    What bollocks. This has nothing to do with quality. BTW, all features have voice commands.

    Tell me, when using FSD does it matter if there are stalks?

    Exactly. Tesla is all in on FSD, the car drives itself. The next version is finally hands free.

    • @c3vzn

      June 28, 2024 at 10:08 pm

      What percentage of owners using FSD for all their driving? If it’s not close to 100% and even getting close to that figure in the next 10 years then your point makes no sense.

      June 28, 2024 at 10:37 pm

      Then do away with the feature when you have a functioning reliable FSD. With Elon it’s take it away first and hope for a diminished replacement somewhere down the line – see radars for example.

      @@MahanFan1 – the largest selling carin the world is the Tesla Model Y, which still has stalks. Those that buy the new Model 3 that no longer have stalks get a car that has a rear seat video screen that has Bluetooth so the kids can watch their own stuff. It also has ambient lighting around the dash and doors that you can customize to any color. After driving this amazing car for a couple of weeks the lack of stalks becomes moot. It is only an issue at first.

    JD Powers is a scam. Car manufacturers that produce poor reliability products use JD Powers Initial Quality survey in their marketing.

    This is a false narrative of course. It only measures initial subjective things like build quality, materials, comfort, driver controls and so on. Mercedes and Jaguar, for example, always score very high in these initial impressions.

    However in long term reliability, issues requiring a visit to the service center, and empirical data these brands are at the bottom.

    The idea that Tesla is somehow “low quality” because the controls, which all have voice commands, are confusing to new owners is fantastical.

    FINALLY! We’re done with this SUPER MINIMALIST “So Called” clean design BS! The Top cars on the market right now that have nailed the in car setup are Toyota and GMC. Toyota 4Runner, Tacoma, Tundra are doing a massive screen for Apple CarPlay then very chunky lever like buttons, new Lexus GX has the most satisfying gear shift. The 2024 GMC ACADIA has completely NAILED IT. The “LEAKED PHOTOS” of the 2025 GMC YUKON Copies its little brother the ACADIA, it’s the perfect blend of minimalism with some very necessary physical buttons like for AC, Volume and lots of space in the dash by moving the gear shifter up to a lever behind steering, pure brilliance. TOYOTA has become my new favorite solely because I feel like I’m inside a transformer, I love how masculine it feels, especially during a time when masculinity is under attack, that alone drives me towards it. Also I’m in a brand new 2022 BMW X5, only 7,000 miles fully paid for and I want out stat! I’m getting bullied by larger trucks on the road. I just learn what a unibody versus body on frame means and it’s terrifying when you compare crash survival reports. I’ll be in a much larger safer body on frame suv very very soon. I only drive 5-8 miles a day so my carbon footprint is already tiny even when compared to Tesla owners. I might own a larger gas burning engine but so what if it’s sitting in the garage 99% of the time versus a Tesla owner who drives at least an hour a day, charging off the grid which burns more coal and pollution than my car will ever produce, solely based on my driving habits. I work from home.
