2 min readKey summary
Jony Ive said multitouch works on phones, but it can be unsafe in cars because drivers must look away from the road.

The interior design intentionally limits touchscreen dependence, putting ease of use and driver attention ahead of screen-heavy tech.
The piece frames this as a safety-first backlash against overusing touchscreens in automotive design.
