I've been hearing that for years, and I'm still waiting. Incidentally, my 2020 Ford Escape has buttons, which was a strong selector. I hear it's because it was designed for the European market (as the Ford Kuga)
The NCAP rules only came into effect this year. 2026 and later models should all have a decent set of physical controls
