Tesla thinks a grabbing stick is a good replacement for right-hand drive in the UK. - eviltoast

Order a Model S or Model X in the UK and you’ll receive a left-hand drive car and a bonus grabbing stick.

  • It just doesn’t make sense not to make them when it literally was the same process to make a RHD as a LHD vehicle. It doesn’t cost extra money or use extra parts. It’s just “oh this part goes on this side instead of this side.”

    If they stopped making them entirely, it’s more than likely out of spite than any other reason.

      I dunno, there’s retooling a factory as well as team training for QC, and surely some parts would differ as it would be mirrored.
