    Bold claim when you remember all of the horrific UI that car manufacturers utilized before everyone started using Apple and Google’s UI. Sometimes I have to borrow an old car from someone and you just can’t find anything. Really, I’m more in favor of bringing back physical buttons for all basic functions, but a good UI will not only make it quick and easy to say change to the next song or view trip details, but it will also prevent you from performing more complicated tasks while in motion. We’ll see what GM’s solution is, but I have little faith.

      Physical buttons are things I don’t have to look at when I’m driving. That’s good.

      In my opinion there is a balance, where things you use commonly while driving are physical controls, and everything else is touch screen. But it seems like literally no one knows how to do this.
