Love the controls in my Model 3. Whenever I see people complain about this, I always think "What is it that you're fiddling with your car so much that you need a shortcut button for everything?" because I don't fiddle with my car while driving, and little while parked.
Not surprisingly, this test is highly contrived and nonsensical. Let's review:
> 1. Activate the heated seat, increase temperature by two degrees, and start the defroster.
> 2. Power on the radio and adjust the station to a specific channel (Sweden’s Program 1).
> 3. Reset the trip computer.
> 4. Lower the instrument lighting to the lowest level and turn off the center display.
1. Seats, steering wheel, air are warmed by the app before I leave. Seats and air temp are set on auto and I rarely have to change them during a trip. defroster is a button on the bottom.
2. I click a button and say "Play <Blah> on Spotify". Sometimes I play stuff from my phone. Four years in, I have not yet used the radio.
3. Car has auto trips from last charge, last park as well as two manual ones. They are burried deep, in the menu. But why is anyone resetting trip counters while driving on the highway?
4. Ugh, it's set on auto brightness and I've never touched it after setting it up. Switches to dark mode on sunset as well.
Touchscreens are better because you don't need to fiddle with the cars they come with.
- kipchak 4y agoIs this the case for all cars with touch screens or Teslas in particular? I've seen some pretty horrible touch screens in cars. For a recent example, the MK8 Golf GTI.
