I'm lucky enough to never have owned a car without buttons - My newest car was a '19 Benz and they LUCKILY were pretty slow about hopping onto the touchscreen bandwagon

However, in my comment I meant on-screen buttons anyway, as that seems to be the norm nowadays :(

Hopefully that'll change, iirc the EU discussed about requiring physical buttons for the highest safety rating a few months ago. Idk how that turned out but if it passed there's hope

I love it when politicians in a democracy are doing things for the people.
