I regularly drive a variety of electric cars (renault, smart, bmw, ford, VW) and besides the Smart For* series, which is cost-down so much that it doesn't even have a touchscreen, all of the cars have at least one feature available exclusively through the touchscreen. One of the most infuriating is Reanult's ZOË, which has really good physical controls for absolutely everything, except volume. That's the one not-driving-related thing I need to be able to adjust while moving! Even the 2008 Scenic dinosaur-burner that I stupidly bought during the pandemic has better controls than that...
The Model 3 and the Model Y has one two. I would expect the Model X to have one as well. I’m not sure about the old roadster but the lotus interior was not high tech.
The Lotus interior was one of the most glorious interiors of all time. Simple, light and somehow it was so ergonomic, you can road trip in it and not get sore and tired. A true driver-centric design.
