Interesting fact: I just got a new ev (so a battery hooked up to a computer with wheels) - and it has buttons! It also has dials for sound and climate.
Now to be fair it also takes interacting with a touchscreen to turn on the heated seats, but I’d say it’s progress in the right direction.
Bring back stick-shift, too. People shouldn’t be driving if they have no grasp of the mass and inertia of their car. We should be able to disengage the engine at will. And we should have to pay attention when we drive.
Cars shouldn’t be loaded with user-facing technology. Bring back analog dashboards and buttons for climate control!
I just want to be able to adjust the stereo without looking away from the road. Is that too much to ask?

What EV did you buy?
Iconiq 5. I can honestly say I really enjoy it (and I’m not a car person).

I hate the touch screen climate control, especially when’s it’s cold and it takes the touch screen awhile to get started…
I totally agree, its left me overly commited to keeping my 2009 civic running. I love its controls and lack of complicated ui or os.
