No I don’t think that’s it. The best example is the gen 7 GTI vs the gen 8 GTI (or Golf R) While much of the criticism of the mk8 is overblown, the general impression is that fans of the car are upset. Having to navigate several digital menu screens in order to adjust hvac is frustrating and dangerous and the people have spoken loudly against it
The fact is VW is moving to all electric and the digital controls are deemed more appropriate and also cut costs across the product line because almost every model is now using the same screen and tech…..I think it is the manufacturer’s intention that you control all features via voice control….I haven’t seen any car maker get this right yet and until they do, these digital screens will remain a source of danger and frustration
Can it look ok and be useful? Yea. I love what McLaren does with it and the new lotus emira (last ICE lotus), etc….
