Looks like we all have som reading to do!
Initial impressions seem to be very positive with predicable complaints about range compared to competitors like the Model Y and the Hyundai/Kia/Genesis triplets, but what I find most surprising is the range of opinions on the yoke.
They're genuinely mixed - some don't like it but some really do! It's still not clear to me whether it will even be an option for us in Canada, but I'm starting to consider it as a possibility.
