Automakers are reverting back to tactile controls with buttons and knobs in response to widespread dissatisfaction with touchscreen-heavy dashboards. The US Department of Transportation has warned about the dangers of texting and driving, prompting states to pass laws penalizing the behavior. Despite this, Automakers have been increasing the use of touchscreens in vehicles. Certain automakers, including Volkswagen, Porsche, Hyundai, and Nissan, are advocating for the reintroduction of buttons and dials to create safer and less distracting cabins for drivers. General Motors and Mercedes, however, plan to continue using touchscreens in their vehicles.
