      Isn’t the Cybertruck steering wheel called a squircle?

          Terrible name for a terrible design. Yoke style steering wheels are not safe for cars because they create awkward handholds as they rotate.

          Yoke style works in planes and race cars where they aren’t rotated 360+ degrees regularly, rarely over 90 degrees either direction.

        I cringed. I don’t know if you made that up or not, and the fact that I genuinely can’t tell made me sad for this stupid timeline.

      AKA…the “New and Improved Wheel”. It’s all about the marketing.

      A square and it’s going to be revolutionary. Each side of the square is going to be an add-on
