And screens have become popular because people think they’re fancy, hi-tech, expensive. But ironically they’re cheap and nasty. They are much cheaper to make than haptics, knobs, dials, etc.
I think those old toyota and saab (orange or green is best) screens are nicer to look at than most new ones. Btw have any automakers even tried going above 60hz refresh rates? lol

That is very much changing, in my view, in large part because actual luxury vehicles are sticking with physical controls.
Always cheaper to buy a big flat piece of glass that’s already mass produced than to design and manufacture a custom control interface.
Cheaper? They don’t care about cheaper. That custom control interface is a revenue stream.
