This isn't a yoke.
On Wednesday,porno izlemek i?in en iyi dns Tesla rolled out the new interior look for its refreshed Model S and X electric cars. Both feature a new steering wheel design and touchscreen layout.
Tesla is calling the new wheel a "stalkless steering yoke," meaning there's no stalk to press for the turn signal or to change drive modes. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on his company's earnings call Wednesday that the new Model S will be available next month, starting at $79,990 for the most basic version — just $10,000 more than the old version. The revamped Model X will follow later in the year.

Memories Credit: tesla The redesign also changed up the Model S and X displays. There are now three screens with a completely different alignment for the front center screen. What used to be a vertical touchscreen is now a horizontal 17-inch screen. There's still a second screen behind the wheel, which Tesla removed in the Model 3 and Y.

The Model S and X are Tesla's two original cars. But once the more budget-friendly Model 3 and Y were released in the past few years, sales slowed for the Tesla classics. During all of 2020 Tesla delivered 57,039 Model S and X vehicles combined, compared to a combined 442,511 cars for the Model 3 and Y.

The Model S also has a long-awaited variant available: a tri-motor Plaid+ version with more range and better performance. The top-of-the-line variant costs $139,990 but will come with a more than 520-mile range. (The "regular" Model S Plaid has a 390-mile range.) It's supposed to start being delivered to customers later in February.
During Wednesday's earnings call, Musk noted that the Model S and Model X both have Plaid versions (starting at $119,990) that are faster, but not as fast as the Plaid+. The Model S can go from 0 to 60 mph in under 2 seconds. Tesla claims that's the quickest acceleration "of any production car ever." The top speed is 200 mph.
