That's the funniest thing I've heard today
I think the latest models also have the gear selector (or whatever they're called for automatics / EVs) on the touch screen, so you need to swipe up to put it into drive.
So... the entire car is bricked if that screen malfunctions and the car is not usable by those with poor motor skills in their right hand?
Nope, there are alternative buttons, but I agree it’s not an improvement that they have removed the stalks.
