‘Completely stupid’: Tesla’s new gear shifter and indicators

Only a "genius" would put the shifter on the roof. Or maybe a monkey. 🐒


While previous iterations of the Model 3 featured a physical gear shifter on the indicator stalk, the 2024 Model 3 has a gear selector that's incorporated into the central 15.4-inch touchscreen.

This follows the same formula as the updated Model S and Model X offered overseas, both of which feature a gear selector on the driver's side of the central touchscreen.

Traditionalists have the option to bypass this touchscreen gear selector and opt for a physical shifter – but they'll find it in an even more unconventional location.

While the backup physical gear selector in the new Model S and Model X is located below the touchscreen, in the new Model 3 it's been moved to the roof.

This rooftop gear selector can be used instead of, or in addition to, the touchscreen selector – or in the event the touchscreen selector fails.
