Another Tesla feature banned by China

China says “No!” to another Tesla feature as it wants to keep steering wheels round, or rounder."

Why re-invent the wheel, door handles and steering wheels work, let them improve on other parts of a car.

The "Yoke" I never thought would become common place in regular cars.

Steering wheels need to be round not odd shaped and not a yoke. I drove a car with some squared off wheel and it was a fucking pain.
