    Thankfully, after every reviewer called them bullshit, their newer cars have shifted back to real buttons on the wheel.

    There’s still capacitive button BS for the heating controls though, so there’s still shit reviewers need to push back on.

      I had a 2023 hire VW Caddy while mine was getting repaired and it had real buttons on the steering wheel thankfully. The climate control was all on a touchscreen though which was awful. At least they had a button next to the wheel that would set it to demist the windscreen (change the blowers, heat and fan to Max) so you could do that without crashing.

      Was so glad to get mine back with actual controls.
