Automotive Industry

I’ve been arguing this point since all my tech co-worker peers started mumbling about their teslas.

Here’s the thing: we keep missing the happy middle ground: user configurable buttons.

I don’t know why my current vehicle has track skip buttons on the center console next to the emergency lights buttons. I would love a fan-off button/hard touchpoint though. That one’s in the infotainment screen.

Also: buttons should have positive feedback so we don’t need to take our eyes off the road.

A world where we have buttons AND can configure most/many/some of them is the right choice.
