Just the other day, I found myself in a perfectly agreeable electric vehicle built for nothing more than commuting. I got in, started the thing, wirelessly connected my phone, and set off. Soon after, I wanted to adjust the temperature and hit the universal air-conditioning button, but it did nothing. This meant I had to go to the main menu, scroll to the climate control page, and then slide my finger to set the ideal temperature, which was a massive pain because the car’s damping made it feel bouncier than a jackrabbit on a pogo stick.
