    My parents’ Lexus has a button joystick kind of thing with similar resistance tech to the ps5 triggers for the navigation. It’s not bad.

    The joystick is on the center console, so you can use it without looking.

      How do you see what the joystick is pointing at without looking at the screen it’s controlling.

      Radio volume, climate controls, and drive/transmission controls are all necessary for safe operation and should be able to be used without taking eyes off the road if needed. There should be federal mandates to keep those controls off of gaze required touch screens. (I’m looking at you VW, of which I own 3 classic examples, but would never consider a current gen one).

        I think it’s just for changing inputs and radio, not climate, definitely not volume or transmission. You do need to look at the screen though.
