CTOnews.com, March 16, 2008 (Xinhua) although Tesla's Model S and Model X's innovative Yoke steering wheel looks like science fiction, not all car owners like this steering wheel, and some people think it is not in line with traditional driving habits and is not easy to operate. In order to meet the needs of these car owners, Tesla launched a circular steering wheel modification kit overseas, which can now be purchased through Tesla App.

According to reports, Tesla's Model S / X round steering wheel modification kit sells for $700 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 4830 yuan), which includes the cost of installing the round steering wheel by Tesla's service technician.

It should be noted that the modified kit is only suitable for Model S and Model X models with Yoke steering wheels. The Yoke steering wheel, a kind of steering wheel highly respected by Tesla's chief executive, Elon Musk, caused a strong response when it was first launched, with some people liking its avantgarde and science fiction and others disgusted by it.

Although Musk said the Yoke steering wheel would continue to exist, Tesla listened to users and eventually provided a circular steering wheel option for Model S and Model X.

In addition, it is reported that the Cybertruck electric pickup truck launched by Tesla in the future may also provide two steering wheel options. In an interview earlier this year, Tesla's chief car designer said they preferred to equip the Cybertruck with an Yoke steering wheel, but Tesla might give Cybertruck the option of a round steering wheel, given the user's reaction to the steering wheel.

It is worth mentioning that when Chinese users buy Model S / X on Tesla's official website, they can directly choose the circular steering wheel or the Yoke steering wheel.
