To make life easier for English drivers, Tesla delivers its cars with equipment that is as novel as it is comical: a gripping stick.
Driving with the steering wheel on the wrong side, what a funny idea. Yet it is the choice of many drivers for a variety of reasons. But this is also what Tesla customers have to experience on the other side of the Channel, where the brand now only offers vehicles with the steering wheel on the left. But to help them on a daily basis, the brand offers them the ultimate tool: telescopic pliers!

A Tesla clamp called The Reacher
The minimalist box marked “The Reacher” hides a telescopic clip that allows drivers alone in the car to be able to grab the tickets printed by the parking or toll terminals. This is the only solution found by the first brand of electric cars in the world to satisfy buyers in countries where people drive on the left!
As a reminder, Tesla has made the decision to cease production of the Model S and Model X with a right-hand drive. An assumed industrial choice, for “accelerate its production and improve its quality more efficiently”according to a spokesperson for the brand on the microphone d’Autocar. In countries where these two models are still offered, customers are free to finalize their order with pliers, or to fall back on a Model 3 or a Model Y.
