Our Subaru has a physical volume knob.

Its position is only a "gentle suggestion" to the software to move volume up or down.

At times, especially when starting the vehicle, there is major latency in the software processing the knob movement..

Also, if the knob is moved too fast, the sw gets the wrong reading.

This results in volume being way too high for serveral seconds as well as many other frustrating, dangerous situations.

UX in cars made in the 60s were better than this.

I don't think slapping on fake physical knobs onto laggy buggy software is a solution at all.
