EU automaters fail at making modern cars. They just put a bunch of screens in there with awful software. If you go all screens, just commit like Tesla. If you can't beat Tesla, just stick with minimal screens and use buttons.
Somewhere between 2010 and 2020, most automakers went crazy with their designs and it went all downhill from there.
- quantum_magpie 9mo agoI have a 2020 Fiat 500 Abarth, and it is absolutely perfect: There is a screen (I think 7") for Android Auto/CarPlay/radio/nav, and every single other function in the car has a physical button. It is also absolutely gorgeous - pinnacle of design, IMO
- PunchyHamster 9mo agoThat's about what I want from interior - any builtin infotainment will get out of date, any more electronics is just stuff to eventually break
- gambiting 9mo agoOur 2021 Volkswagen e-Up is like this. There is a tiny(like 3" tiny) screen for the radio, bluetooth and reverse camera, everything else is analogue and has physical buttons. It's honestly best of the best Volkswagen design, what they did with their newer cars in terms of interior usability is a travesty.

- trgn 9mo agoi still miss the interior of my 2010 fiat punto
- jansper39 9mo agoFrom this year all EU cars will have physical buttons for heater controls, media etc.
- epolanski 9mo agoNot sure why would you think EU automakers fail at making modern cars, also, you're generalizing 40+ car automakers in one basket.
