· Föderation EN Mi 19.02.2025 18:43:44 the biggest shame is in 2014 VW *had* the right balance between the touchscreen and real buttons surrounding it (I drive a 2015 VW Polo) That said, the main infotainment controls are at least duplicated on the steering wheel, but I think they should have retained physical buttons with tactile feedback for the climate control) Euro regulators are lowering safety ratings for cars with important/critical functions on touchscreen only.. |

Föderation EN Do 20.02.2025 14:18:53 @vfrmedia @paco @n1xnx @steggy We had a Mazda with a screen but not a touch screen. You had a big clicky knob that you could spin, depress, or tip side to side, and a couple of buttons on the console. I liked it, but I feel like I had to look at the screen too much to be sure I had landed on the right spot before depressing the knob to select. This was probably not a good compromise. |
