Touchscreens can also leave fingerprints and those will catch light at any angle and reduce effective contrast
Counterpoint: the touchscreen in my car DOES work with gloves. Of course the knobs do too.
The screen is some different tech and not quite as responsive as an iPhone screen and does not do multitouch, but otherwise works fine.
What car do you have? Usually lower end cars have resistive touchscreens which yours sounds like an example of, but higher end ones have capacitive touchscreens and those don't generally work with gloves, but of course gloves that work with capacitive touchscreens exist and have for many years now.
There are gloves that work with capacitive touchscreens and have existed for 20 years now ever since the iPhone came out.
