Hyundai is slowly backing away from the all-screen approach to interior design.

Hyundai Design North America Vice President Ha Hak-soo said that people "get stressed, annoyed and steamed when they want to control something in a pinch but are unable to do so."

Goddamn right!!

The only thing I need on a screen is the GPS, everything else is an annoyance.

Personally I don't even need that, just give me aux and usb ports for my phone. It'll be multitudes better than whatever hardware they use for the "infotainment" system.

As someone who needs GPS a lot for work, having it on the large display is very nice. I think the sweet spot is around 7 inches; big enough for maps, but leave enough space for everything else.

The best is when they display the "next step" right on the dash. Too bad my work vehicle doesn't do that.
