Agree on shedding some weight!
Perhaps using a style like the Tesla Model 3 and others (flush design without the complication of motors to push the handles out)?
Also it's nice that @Ford Motor Company removed the center dial on the 2025 MY. I think the center console could be further improved by moving the hazard light button, E-brake, and "parking assist" button somewhere on the far left bottom driver side (kind of what Hyundai does on their I5) to...

Nonetheless, I agree that it would be nice to go just FWD or RWD on trip/eco mode for more range.
Hopefully the engineers already thought of this and maybe with AWD trims, just...
Thanks for the feedback and agreed that for the price, all MME trims should have a powered lift-gate as standard these days to be competitive with other manufactures (especially being an SUV).

I thought using the volume dial as a climate control was a unique design and reminds me of a Nest thermostat. I'd still like that similar...
