Load of uninformed B.S. from the supply chain expert. There’s not a door out there that isn’t full of empty space.

Could they just use regular fucking door handles?
I remember when people kept trying to assert that Tesla is a "luxury" brand, though it seems that this pretense has finally been dropped. Even so, surely they can figure out something that doesn't seem to be an issue for even the cheapest tier of vehicles available in USDM.

Wtf is "willingness to work from design-first principles"? Do Wired realize that the form of the handle follows the function of designing for better aerodynamics?
Pretty sure they're using "design" to mean "aesthetics" in that sentence. I do think we need to less often use "design" to refer specifically to aesthetics or graphic design; every object and system that humans have made are designed.
