"Tesla's Patent: A Game-Changing Overhaul of Vehicle Interiors Revealed"

Tesla has filed a patent for a new steer-by-wire system, which eliminates mechanical linkages between the steering wheel and the wheels on the ground, relying solely on electrical connections. This technology allows for a U-shaped yoke steering wheel, creating more space in the vehicle cabin for different designs. While Tesla previously faced criticism for introducing a yoke-style wheel without the steer-by-wire system, they have now developed the technology to a point where they could file a patent. However, it should be noted that Lexus's upcoming RZ 450e electric vehicle also features a similar steer-by-wire system.
