Was it?
I love auto settings, it means much less fiddling/interaction (which is safer).
My last manual AC car was from the "previous millennium". Why wouldn't you want to set the temperature?
(Physical buttons tho, tho it's hard to get it these days. But even touchscreen climate control should be very low interaction.)
Also manual AC usually means no HUD, no adaptive high beams, no radar, etc. Those are essentials that do a lot for road safety, and all were available since mid 90s (high end at the time).
Add dual climate control and then I'm with you.
Fat disagree. No way. Nope. I have cooling seats in 105 degree weather. Ain't nothing like my balls having a cooking time on the commute home.
With the old style set up I just popped a small ice bag under them
I'm not wealthy enough to own a car that has anything newer than this lmao
Yeah, just make them more robust and maybe add more steps between settings.
I love automatic AC, but I sadly share cars with people who crank the temperature down to below 65*F the second they get into a hot car.
achkually your title is wrong because it was never improved upon.
My vw passat has that, but the temp control maintains the temperature, so straight up is 72°f
Never letting go of it.
I should do a video on the bad UX in the Mach E.
I got similar in my pre-lift BMW E46 and I love it. I had also post-lift E46 with buttons for AC, but I prefer the knobs since no need to look at it while driving.
Heated and cooling seats..
Split zones
Heated steering wheels
And so much more..
I swear the online Luddite whining about car tech never ends…
