I have the same opinion about touchscreens, but I can do most tasks on my BYD with gesture control, no need to look. Not perfect, but works pretty well. Most major functions also have physical controls, except the AC as I mentioned. I believe China implemented regulations requiring physical controls in newly built cars.
But do you know what is perfect and didn’t need change? Buttons and knobs. I don’t want a camera looking at me at all times just to do a job buttons and knobs did perfectly well. Touchscreens are fine for media and navigation, everything else should be with a tactile button I can push or turn without looking.
I know, sorry if I come off as some dense idiot, but I am fucking angry at how shit everything has become. And my wife sadly doesn’t share my opinion of 90’s Toyota Camry wagons being the greatest car ever build.

You’re preaching to the choir :)

Keep in mind, the wife is never wrong.
