VW seems to have topped all of these suggestions. Their volume control in the latest car (ID 4, and latest Golf) is dumb as hell, and sheer dangerous.
Can't believe mature people in that company thought sliding your finger through to change the volume or temperature, when in a moving car, was a good idea. (even their steering wheel controls are touch sensitive).
The Germans are way behind in basic software/ui/ux design, to the point that having normal knob controls is considered a huge feature.
Have you ever tried buying a train ticket at one of the vending machines of the „Deutsche Bahn“ while in a hurry to catch your train?

They ... abandoned knobs. I have a car from their previous generation and the whole UI can be controlled with knobs and button presses, in addition to touching the screen.
