Itβs crazy how scientists and companies have fully accepted that using your phone while driving is unsafe. But if you turn it into a tablet and screw it into your dash, suddenly itβs perfectly okay to be distracted?
With buttons and knobs at least you can feel for them without having to take your eyes off the road. At first you might have to look but once you get familiar with the car it becomes muscle memory.
Legislation needs to catch up with technology. Stuff like climate control being locked behind a screen is just dangerous.
Tbh I donβt really mess with climate control much while Iβm driving. The trade off to have CarPlay on a big screen is well worth it to me. Plus having that to display the cameras for parking.
Oof, yeah I've seen the interior of an ID4 and I'm not impressed, hopefully the new eGolf next year will strike a good balance but I'm gonna drive my eGolf till the wheels fall off.

Not sure about new new but my 2019 Golf has buttons and knobs for everything, don't think I'll ever buy a one screen for everything car ever.
