Hmmm… Having physical buttons for car controls is good, but you’re not taking away my creature comforts. Adjusting the temperature and fan speed 20 times in a drive? Nah, give me a thermostat. Cold butt? I think not. Gloves? Nah, heat my steering wheel. And once you get off of car controls, touch screen is fine and I really like Android Auto.
I actually really like how my Bolt EV does it. The only thing that’s on screen that shouldn’t be is the seat heater controls.
I just wish modern cars would do what you want. I want to set a temperature and a fan speed. Modern cars have some kind of hidden function.
that you can’t use.
We have a fully loaded 2017 Bolt, all the features, nothing left out; there are three “placeholders” for buttons on the dash that have no function, but if you put the car into reverse before turning on the seat heaters you have to wait until you put it into drive before you can turn them on. This does not make sense to me.

Also touchscreens are pretty unsafe.

Yeah, it doesn’t. I have mine set to auto so they’re on even if I forget but I agree.
I have a '22 Bolt now and really miss the simplicity of my '10 Versa. HVAC should be done with tacticle knobs, not some tiny flaps.
