Controls that have migrated away from physical buttons and onto touchscreens has left Matt Prior in despair
To my relief, it looks like the answer to the question “Is it just me?”, is no. Too many cars in recent times have had me despairing at the amount of controls that have migrated away from physical buttons and onto touchscreens. In some cases, this is slightly annoying. In others, I would argue it’s borderline dangerous.
The NCAP decision ought to prevent more mission creep, but largely sets the limits at where we are now. I would prefer things that are becoming common were asked to be undone. The Volvo EX30, for example, which last year drove me to distraction by having no physical controls for the door mirrors, wiper sensitivity, climate control , lights , any of its driving assistance systems, and no quickly-turned/push-able volume control, could still qualify for five NCAP stars. I wanted to burn it.
