why? Trying to think of a use case why I would want or need a soft and manual tonneau cover?

It’s still improves aero and range. Also, potentially keeps your stuff from getting wet.

Because the RWD doesn’t include one standard and just like any pickup truck some people want a cover for the bed. I have used soft roll up covers on many of my trucks. They work just as intended.

I watched the video, said to myself why would I want that. Then scrolled down to see your comment and began to laugh.

IMO the vault automatic tonneau cover was one of the features that sold the CT for me. Removing it with the ability to install a soft cover seems like an extreme downgrade.

Even the hard tonneau doesn't do that

Hmmm, I hope that's made of Kevlar

Well, yes, but they're trying to lower the price. I imagine the auto-cover isn't inexpensive to manufacture.
It's funny that this version is still more than I am or ever was willing to pay for the CT.

Wayyy too "Soft" for me. Would have minded it if they will with a more solid rolling option like the BAK Roll-X model

Per Tesla, a deployed tonneau cover can increase the rated range by about 12 miles. Not bad!

Yea this looks like a $149 soft cover top off of Amazon to me.
Just based off that video it looks like that thing will be flapping like crazy back there, hopefully final version is a bit more robust.

It's supposed to be a downgrade. It's a cheaper version.
