the model y update to mimic the cybertruck made me groan.

I think the old model y looks great. It was a success!

But they messed with it and the new one looks like a duck.

in comparison the model 3 update looked ok.

But for me the relentless march to remove controls from the car is the worst.

It started with no dashboard on the model 3, (crowded central display off to side).

But then got worse and worse.

No stalks makes it unbuyable to me. No drive select stalk (it will guess), no turn signal stalks. Critical controls on the touchscreen. Small targets that are hard to hit in a moving car.

It looks minimal in the showroom, but day to day it makes you a worse driver. It is techno poverty.
