  If it turns out to be real, that would be the easiest buy I’ve ever had with a car. But with a design supposedly about practicality, why do they have to go with the iPad car controls? Hopefully that trend dies out soon and we can have buttons again.

  I can’t see myself spending money on anything beyond a smartphone with a touchscreen for everything, and seeing it in this makes me more skeptical about the product as a whole.

    Touchscreen controls so if/when something goes wrong with the software that controls it, Only they can service it instead of the owner of the vehicle.

    Yeah, that is the worst thing about modern cars. They just produced their first fully drivable prototype, so I am cautiously optimistic.
