Hyundai is slowly backing away from the all-screen approach to interior design.

Hyundai Design North America Vice President Ha Hak-soo said that people "get stressed, annoyed and steamed when they want to control something in a pinch but are unable to do so."

Biggest button needs to be "Disable lane keeping assist" and that should sort most of the stress he refers to.

I recently had a Kona loaner with that. It was so dumb.

The problem is not touchscreens. It's the awful implementation. I have a Tesla(never again, ugh) and a Hyundai Ioniq5.

The Tesla has a fantastic touchscreen that integrates well with the car. Also no display behind the wheel. I'm tall, I can't see it.

Hyundai the rear seat warmers are buttons. My passengers are happy. The driver's warmer is buried in a touch screen menu. Which would be fine but the shitty screen takes a minute to boot up which means I can't adjust my seat until I've already driven off and now it's dangerous and fiddly.

In summary: I don't mind if it's touchscreen or not, it has to be fast and reactive.
