Tesla To Install Free Power Liftgates For Owners

Tesla is now going to install a power trunk for free for wheelchair users who own Model 3 cars after one of them made a sensible plea for it with CEO Elon Musk on Twitter.

Musk often takes feedback from Tesla owners and prospective buyers on Twitter.

Tesla even has employees survey Twitter to find inquiries to bring to Musk’s attention.

Please, fix your headline. It's not wheelchair lifts. It's a powered liftgate for the trunk and frunk.

Mobility is a challenge and it's good to see this. What scares me are the wheelchair vans that are lifted sky high to make way for the accommodation and I wonder how tipsy they are or conversely what a purpose-designed, wheelchair van would look like,

Feels like if you are in a wheelchair, a Model Y would be a better option.

I can't imagine a wheelchair fitting very well in a Model 3. And the picture shown in the article is a Model S.
