I drove a Model S a few years ago, I don't remember it handling poorly but it's

 Mercedes content: Our 2019 Sprinter had no tactile buttons or knobs for radio 
presets either. However, it did have the capability of voice activation so I 
was able to say “Play 98.7 FM,” and it would immediately obey my command. I 
could also turn on the seat heater, check fuel economy instantaneous/average, 
and probably a few other things.
I did get to experience Tesla acceleration since I got an Uber driver who was 
more than happy to show off his new Model III. I got to feel the dashboard 
touchscreen since I was able to ride in the front passenger’s seat before 
COVID. Go kart ride and handling comments are spot on.
