So, I have a car on order, although I am not committed to it as the dealer knows it'll sell anyways (end of April is scheduled). I've owned many cars, but never one as governed by a touch screen as the XC40. I've read conflicting reports on the pros/cons of the intuitiveness of this touch screen. I posted a couple weeks ago about the touch screen in hot/cold weather - so maybe I'm hung up on this screen? I've always been used to the tactile feel of a button, knob, or lever where you can do virtually any sound, climate, seat/steering wheel heat/chill, etc., etc.
To me, lots of these controls cannot possibly be done on the touch screen without taking you eyes off the road, correct?
I can get around a touch screen/computer while sitting at a desk, yada, but how intuitive and what kind of learning curve did you have? The dealer said, 'you got half of it figured out already'....but I honestly didn't know where/what I was while doing so (although I played with it for literally just 2-3 minutes). During the test drive I was watching/feeling the engine, car, brakes, visibility (poor out the rt & lt back), much more than I was tapping and swiping.
Thoughts and opinions? Thanks in advance.
