I agree, especially when the touchscreen replaces physical controls. I really like that in my current car I can adjust fan speed, temperature, stereo volume, etc all without needing to take my eyes off the road, but if I bought a new car with those controls moved to the touchscreen that would no longer be possible.
Also, most touchscreens are not that well suited for use in cars. The interface is slow is usually slow, clunky, and modal, the screen is hard to read in certain light and/or blinding at night, animations are often distracting, the touch sensor is resistive and ignores input if you don't push firmly enough/hold your finger long enough, etc.
It's disappointing that touchscreen interfaces are aggressively being pushed downmarket, to the point where it's very difficult to find a decent car without one nowadays.
