Is there a vehicle company that is trying new things UI wise that does it well?

Why are vehicle companies somehow so bad at this?

I was looking into getting a new car, newest car I have is 10 years old, and almost immediately I'm really turned off by the changes and interior of most vehicles. I feel like I went into a coma and woke up and I'm confused by "the future".

They really stopped making cars in about 2013, what you see now is consumer electronics. My recommendation if you want to have a "classic style" reliable car, get a Mercedes metris low-roof van and put seats in it (or get the passenger version). Still has a shifter (on the wheel stalk) and normal wheel, and in some cases, a removable radio (remember those?).
