I feel like people tend to get polarized on this issue but I think there’s very much a hybrid sweet spot.
Nice to have rich car data display and a big juicy CarPlay / android auto touch interface for quick glance tinkering with a map or audio app, or seeing camera feeds for blind spots. Some people like media streaming while parked / camping.
But certain things should be completely no-glance fully tactile interaction, like volume adjustment, climate control, switching gears and driving modes, signaling, etc…
What I object to is these high tech cars always go hand in hand with intrusive hard to opt-out of privacy invasions like archiving cabin audio, camera feeds, realtime GPS tracking, etc… and very much selling all that in bad faith knowing full well that average consumers are unaware of even a tiny sliver of what’s going on there.

- ikr678 1y agoIt's polarizing because the 'no screen' side is no longer given an option on the market to express that preference.
- conception 1y agoThis is mostly the EV6. Generally, I’ve been very impressed at how it seems designed by someone who will actually drive the car. Best car I’ve ever owned. Turns like a boat though.
