$600k and they still won't give you physical climate controls.
Parsimonious product design with IMHO out of date conception of what's "cool". I think Ive is pretty washed up at this point.

The climate controls are physical knobs: https://youtu.be/6Reu1WS3BhM?t=611
I mean it's neat but looks sorta.. halfway physical... still requires you to take your focus off the road and look at the touchscreen to know what you're changing and what the setting is.
I don't think that really solves much?
There's also the metal handle to rest your hand on, which also acts as a target which you can find blindly, and from there you can find the correct knob by touch. You'll just have to remember the the third knob is the fan speed and so on. I imagine that you can use it without looking, and it seems to be designed that way. Also I'm pretty sure that the UI is replicated on the display behind the wheel so you don't have to look to see the numbers.
