      i feel like my cmax is a great middle ground. all the important bits are physical but theres plenty i can do on the screen as well if needed. while id like android auto or apple car play to be able to be controlled from the steering wheel controls or whatever, to make it easier to keep your hands on the wheel, itd need to be wired in and i dont know if automakers would like that. most new cars have all the buttons already so thats not an issue. back, home, select, and four directions is all you need.
