I do not think drivers hate touchscreens. I think drivers hate idiot developers and their idiot management.
First the touchscreens' esthetics are in the 90's.
Then the touchscreens' performance are in the 90's
Third the management strategy is to piss off the drivers by shoving down their throats the two above.
I dream of a car where I (that is me personally) can set up what I want to see.
I do not give a fuck about the temperature of the engine or my EV efficiency. I want a huge digital speed meter and a smaller distance I can drive with my current fioul. And that's all.
Is it that difficult to provide a default setup and then let the user choose what they want to see on their reactive touchscreen?
Toyota managed in my RAV4 to create the dashboard I hate most, with passion.
Did you ask them what they hate, exactly? The fact that there is no physical button (because they like the feeling of a physical button), or that the touchscreen buttons are not reactive enough and never show what you would like them to?
I don't care about the aesthetics or performance, because I don't want to look at it to control it. Touchscreen control is for something you look directly at, focus on, and use as an input. That's incompatible with driving.
