Dangerous, complicated and unreliable user interfaces
The new Hyundai infotainment user interface now deployed throughout the Hyundai, Kia and Genesis vehicles is vastly too complicated for the average user, is unreliable in connectivity and is almost entirely screen driven. Aside from the requirement to stop the car, wait 15 seconds (like a dysfunctional laptop) and then restart to get the infotainment system to clear after a connectivity failure, most of the driver controls require some sort of screen interface. For example, to change the fan speed the driver has to take his eyes off the road for 3+ seconds to find a small screen icon and then press it until the required fan speed indicator displays. At highway speed this could be the length of a football field. And this is only one of many such requirements. The Apple Car play connectivity is sporadic and often requires restarts.
While the new design is clean and elegant, it tends to obscure issues that drivers learn about after purchase. Insulation turns out to be insufficient, resulting in excessive highway road noise. And the driver "Safety" features such as collision avoidance, in many cases are not made optional when the government would allow it. The result is, for example, a very annoying "feature" that sounds an alarm and suggests you take a "Coffee break" when the required steering column mounted camera that watches your face at all times, like your Mother, thinks you are not paying sufficient attention to the road. I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone.
