In what scenario is this necessary?
Like, “hit the trip reset COME ON now now now, we need to zero it noooooow” – nope.
Only one I can think of is during a rally, but that’s a stretch.
Spotted on a Nissan Pathfinder.
Hard Buttons are Coming Back
Let this please be a trend – replacing all this touch-control nonsense and revert back to hard buttons.
Because touch is the opposite of ergonomic, and practically impossible to use without looking, which defeats its purpose.
This is the all-new 2015 Ford Edge.
Ford Brings Back the Hard Buttons!
Found on the new 2016 Ford Explorer. It’s replacing a touch-based console.
This photo was taken during the SUV’s advance-reveal at the LA Auto Show. When the announcement was made, the room cheered.
Welcome Back, Buttons and nice one, Ford.

Why I don’t like touch consoles:
Ideally these buttons can be used while your eyes remain on the road… so where’s the logic in using touch, a non-tactile interface which requires more looking? Haptic just makes it worse.
