I knew it would have great driving dynamics with its rigid chassis, 4-wheel independent suspension with long moment arms, four-wheel steering, and active hydraulic dampers, but it's even better than I imagined. I was a little nervous about steering feedback with the steer by wire system, but Tesla nailed it. It's a game changer to be able to steer around the worst hazards so easily and to only have the desirable feedback come through the steering wheel. When you are off-road, the last thing you want is for the steering wheel to get jerked out of your hands. Steer by wire allows a lighter grip on the wheel. I thought the Model 3 Performance had telepathic steering, but this steer-by-wire takes it to another level.I wouldn't go so far as proposing most people identify their personality with an object but I can confirm aesthetics play a strong part to human decision making, some less than others, but its there nonetheless.
If most people bought it for its superior driving experience, how do you explain them buying it sight unseen with no test drive.
