Just give me a screen for Android auto and that alone. Everything else should be knobs, especially climate controls
I don't know about that. I love the navigation system from my KIA, in my opinion it's far superior to google maps. I even can set the destination remotely via the KIA app, so I don't need to fiddle around once I'm in the car.
Moving parts cost money and wear out.
And if there's one thing the auto manufacturers are good at, it's cutting costs.
Maybe they could remove the engine and gearbox with all their moving parts...
Touch screens break and wear too, and it's more expensive to replace a touch screen than an AC fan knob.
Unless it happens during warranty, that costs money to the user not the manufacturer.
