I loved my old Ford Fusion because it was a touch interface but with raised and lowered plastic so you knew what you were pressing. https://st.motortrend.com/uploads/sites/10/2015/11/2015-ford... the newer fusions replaced controls with actual buttons which looks cheaper and doesn't make it any easier to figure out without looking. probably due to increased failures or simply cost savings
