God no. Have you actually tried using voice commands in a car? It just doesn't work.
Also, I have a turnable+pushable knob in my car and it's frankly terrible because it's very easy to accidentally push when you're trying to turn.
What is far easier to do is to make it so that turning a knob says via audio what action is selected. Then you press a different button to confirm.
