The other approach is to be like China and make touchscreen interfaces that don’t suck. Technically it is very possible, but mentally and ideologically carmakers find it very hard.
I think of how in the Camera industry it would be very possible for cameras to get software updates that add substantial new features but… they don’t.

they sucks and the software too it's super laggy in india, when you open 4-5 taps it stucks... hope someone build some lightweight os for cars or i need to go for it lol.
- aestetics have taken over. Physical dials, buttons and switches are always better than computer-translations of intent. Diagnostics CAN be an added computer, but it need not sit in the center of things. Therefore you don't need touch displays.
