I was recently in a friend’s Tesla model 3 for the first time and all the buttons on the doors simply had a dash “-“ on them. No information about what they were for at all. Same dash for opening the windows and the opening the door. But no indication of which was which.

If the Volvo 240 is an example of elegant functional and minimalist design, the Tesla Model 3 is something close to the exact opposite of that- almost every aspect is sloppily ill conceived and overly complicated, with essential functions that should be accessible in an instant without taking your eyes off the wheel hidden down menus on a touch screen. Saving a single dollar on a physical button at the expense of your safety.

Yeah, great example of the hostile design.

This, giant tablet that is the main interface to everything and car being a death trap in case of fire are my three dealbreakers.

Well, nazi at the helm being the fourth one.

Dunno why you’re being downvoted but I can’t think of four better reasons to not buy a vehicle, despite them being obvious leaders in EV tech, at least in the past.
