Haptic feedback like knob clicks or button presses are much easier to use without taking eyes off the road as often.
Don't you still have to look at it to find it first? Edit: sorry i thought you were talking about touch screens
No. All the knobs are in roughly the same area, so you can find and manipulate them by touch without looking.
I regularly manipulate my 2008 Toyota matrix’s radio and HVAC controls while never taking my eyes off the road. I won’t buy any car that forgoes the physical controls.
