It is not a Model X in the video

You are right. It’s a model Y. I see no evidence of a Model X owner doing this in the article or video.

The article mentions it several times, but there is no evidence of it.

I still think it’s theoretically possible to do a touch interface right… but nobody has figured it out yet. Any interaction that requires you to navigate between multiple menus while driving is doing it wrong, but if you could get all the relevant buttons on screen, in predictable enough locations that people can click them while driving, it could work….

But at that point I’m not sure there’s much benefit to the screen vs physical buttons.
