Tesla are getting rid of buttons and stalks despite the negative impact it has on usability and safety. All to save what is probably a couple of bucks. E.g. The new model 3 replaces indicator stalks with buttons on the wheel making it all but impossible to safely and legally traverse roundabouts. I reckon there will be huge backlash on this especially in the UK and Europe. So they’ll risk their reputation for much less than you might think.
