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.
