I agree that stalkless raises the bar for people new to electric.I too think the front end looks much better and less "Frog like" than the stock Model 3, but with repeat looks I do feel like it slides too close to not having "enough" on the front. I feel they could have styled it a little more, but frankly I don't know enough to say what I would have added.
I find the lack of stalks increasingly silly. It's not just a mis-hit kind of issue for me- now your barrier of entry for people who would consider a Tesla from literally any other OEM just became higher, because your car now is just so much more different to drive.
It's strange they got rid of the fog lights; I wonder if the LEDs have alternate modes that delete their need?
On the flip side, Tesla has put a wiper button on the steering wheel. That is a fantastic change. No one should have to take their eyes off the road to activate windshield wipers.
