So happy to see this. My VW ID.4 is extremely frustrating, because I never know if touching a control will do something or not. Many buttons are also touch-sensitive. Endless confusion, and additionally you can't "feel" for the button, you have to look and touch carefully, because otherwise touching might trigger something else. Just a couple of days ago I wanted to feel the temperature of the air being blown into the cabin. I put my hand near the vent and inadvertently turned off the headlights and turned on rear windshield heating — just by touching. Took a while to set everything back to sane settings.

I use Miles car sharing a lot, and I now actively avoid the VW ID cars. The user experience is just so much better in the Polo, everything just works and is intuitive. In the ID, figuring out how to activate the hot air while driving when the windshield starts to go blind is no fun. Parallel parking sucks because you have very little feel for when the car is bumping against something vs just needing a bit more power to move. The interior looks like it was designed to be cheap above all. Adjusting the mirrors is a frustrating experience.
