Tesla Grabbing Stick?!?

[Zoidz]

Tesla has discontinued right hand drive and here’s their accessory solution to handling tickets, etc. through the right window from the left driver’s seat.

Grab a drive through coffee with this?

I thought this was a fake article but appears to be true.

My first reaction: is this April 1?

Another publication. Only impacts the Model X and S.

It’s the price you pay for buying a vehicle with the drivers seat on the wrong side for your country.

Why would anyone buy a car if this was necessary?

I doubt you are, but if you're serious, these are quite common and cheap. We have 2 in our house because my wife had back surgery and couldn't bend or twist her back for a while. Turns out they're also super handy for getting cat toys out from under the couch!

I should buy one for cat toy retrieval! I have learned so much random stuff on Rivian Forums…

Also good for getting things that fall behind the washer/dryer, refrigerator, etc. I never appreciated how handy these things would be until we had them!

Apparently they don't sell enough Teslas to the UK to justify the expense of the tooling costs to make a right hand drive version.

that brings a new level of meaning to rate limit exceeded.

Yeah ...

The best part? I clicked this link in the sidebar:

Next thing you know Tesla will try to prevent use of Superchargers in those countries unless they switch to putting their steering wheels on the correct side like we do.

 

[Autolycus]

But we should definitely trust that he'd never do anything to cripple a competitor's ability to access the supercharger network or to otherwise alter "NACS" in a way that's advantageous to Tesla at everyone else's expense. Nah, that'd be crazy. Nobody would ever do THAT!
