I'd love an EV with no screen except for the instrument dash and buttons, dials and sliders to operate the A/C and radio.

New Cars must have a backup camera by law. So the screen is mandatory.

  • A video display for a backup camera is mandatory; an all-encompassing whiz-bang touchscreen glass cockpit is not.

    (And yeah, I am very appreciative of the fact that physical buttons, levers, and knobs often cost much more to produce than touchscreen interfaces do.)
