No just have none of this bloated, distracting crap. Just have a small screen that has the option to either run apple carplay or android auto, with the majority of it just being the good old buttons for all the other tasks

>>16662779

Just went to the Chicago Auto Show yesterday. Is it just me, or was it kind of terrible? I've been going ever since my dad took me as a little kid, and this year's show was pretty dull. Granted, it's not the worst it's ever been, but man did most of the exhibits seem spartan. The three test courses were neat to watch for a while, Mercedes in particular, but no way in hell am I waiting in line for that shit, and when I saw all those Giulia Quadrifoglios with automatics, I just about wept.

>>16662922
Yeah, and that's why I don't wait in those lines anymore. Chrysler should have gone balls to the wall and thrown a bunch of Hellcats out there. Then as people are getting out of the cars, their hair standing on end, you hand them a black pamphlet with the word Demon on it in red letters and say "By the way, we're working on something faster"

That's how you do fucking advertising.

They're actually better now because one of the things Fiat happens to do really well is build reliable small-displacement turbocharged 4-cylinders, something Chrysler forgot how to do in 1987 then spent the next 10 years trying to get Mitsubishi to help.

>the new Porsche Panamera requires you to use the touch screen to adjust the direction of the front center air vents

It will be time to have:
a. Brake by wire only
b. Keyless engine off/on
c. Windows and door opening by wire only
d. Exterior door handles removed for streamlined looks (open by fob only)

Ooops, the battery went dead. The windows are rolled up. The kids are in the car. Air is running out.

What about the led screen dash clusters? I feel it would be expensive to fix.

>>16665210
You just swap them out if they fail. Might be cheaper even, since displays are so cheap and they buy so many

>>16662746
Why on earth do you even need all this bullshit. Its a car, not a fucking multimedia device. As long as theres some buttons for the ac and a radio its more than enough.

I don't know what Acura/Honda are thinking with the two screen radios. I think it looks hideous. Japanese manufacturers are also generally behind the curve with infotainment. Stuff from Europe can be okay. Funny enough I feel this is an area where American manufacturers (Ford with Sync3 after their huge misstep with MyFord touch, and Chevy's current system) are ahead. Ford also got over the "everything must be touch sensitive" curve and puts real buttons for all the critical functions too.

You're mailing critiques to Mercedes interior designers? Okay, tell them that those sat-nav "floating screens" are fucking hideous. They're in damn near everything, and they look cheap, plastic, and tacked on as an afterthought. Even that screen in that AMG you posted there, it's the same one that's in the CLA250 at the bottom of the range.

I don't mind having touchscreens, but why the fuck can't they make fluid HD graphics when a 200 bucks tablet can?

>>16667695
Might be too much strain on the car battery?

>>16667845
A good household tablet charger only draws around 15 watts. I'd chalk the lag up to not giving a fuck about optomization. You can have your computer engineers spend 1000 hours fixing the already functional touch screen, or you can have them spend 1000 hours figuring out how to make the ECU cheat emissions tests harder. From a financial perspective the answer is obvious.

>>16662759

>all those buttons just for heating options alone

So what was wrong with the old rotating knobs again? Shit is easy to understand and to use without taking your eyes off the road.

>>16662759
why do cars still have steering wheels, accelerator and brake pedals when they work by wire and could be replaced by a yoke or joystick?

my old car controls can be found by feel and work whether I have wet hands or I'm wearing gloves.

there's so much tight integration of informatics that if the mp3 player fails the car probably can't start. and windshield wipers will cost $200 because they generate OBD3 codes that tell the DMV when they're worn out

>>16663492
Only thing I dont like here is the climate control being linear. I like to turn them with my finger (just like the feeling).

>>16668445
It's more like you can hire people who know what they're doing with designing and implementing interfaces or you can just get your ecu guys to do it in house """for free""".

Oh and you can make all the electronics one disgusting mess of a system so when someone owns the radio they own the whole fucking car.

>>16665269
The worst thing about it is how far back you have to put your arm for putting it in gear. Seems trivial, but if you have long arms its a very uncomfortable task.
