Which is, as long as it doesn't cut important functionality away, for me very preferable to an interior style littered with screens and buttons and knobs. I think the Model 3 is even an improvement to the S there, you have a more minimalistic looking interior even, but they added important usability with proper door handles and pockets and the center console.

I got a 2017 Subaru Impreza with a touch screen interface. Terrible idea on a car. I'm constantly accidentally grazing the touch screen and changing things that I'm not sure of cause I'm watching the road. Too many buttons is awful, but a touchscreen is even worse. You need some kind of physical feeling when you're not looking at the screen and your brain isn't being tricked by the screen.

Personally I think the touchscreen option was because of lower cost and more options when updating the car software.

I very much agree with you here with one exception. I wish there was the option of no center screen at all. I don't want maps and whatever multimedia features it offers. As for the stuff that you have to have that you now access only through the center console, they could still put it in the center, just in place of the screen rather than on the screen.
