TBH that's what all parts of modern, mass-production vehicles look like if they're not expected to be user-facing.

the pedals are literally the user interface of the car tho

my prius isn't made of chrome but the plastic and rubber is made to hold up to a decade of abuse

i guess with self driving cars the expectation is you don't need to bother with the gas pedal as much.

See, this is where the problem is.

> the gas pedal

Tesla is electric, so they got confused about how to build a gas pedal.

Presumably whoever thought that accelerator pedals shouldn't be very carefully designed to avoid jamming full throttle, because no car has ever had an unintended acceleration problem, is presumably now part of the 10%.
