That s the opposite of brands like volkswagen which now offers a configurable digital dashboard display for its golf small car.
Mazda touch screen while driving.
Most new cars offer a tablet like touch screen interface but mazda wants to shift that paradigm.
While rivals offer increasingly complex dashboards the new mazda3 has abandoned touch screens and won t show anything than driving information in its instrument panel.
Operate the touch screen.
Mazda among many other automakers has intentionally refrained from touchscreens.
Instructions may vary depending on your system s version of software.
The company has in fact explained saying that it s not a decision that was hastily made.
For some of the same reasons a big screen of any kind that s closer to the driver s eyes like in the tesla model 3 isn t the answer either mazda insists.
So i got a 2018 gt two days ago and it s such a great car.
While it may seem shocking to some drivers mazda will now seek to eliminate touch.
I couldn t be happier.
I looked up some videos of how to enable the screen while driving but i think they are for older versions of the car.
