Is it poor German engineering, or simply German engineers will expect drivers to seat themselves in an efficient position for driving?
If you look at it from a driving efficiency perspective, the driver can set up his/her position and be able to see all the controls.
If we choose some odd seating combination, obviously the controls can be obscured.
Then I'm one of the 'smug' BMW drivers, who can see all the controls when driving.
Have no issue changing to different designs of driving controls. Can't really understand how, as I was driving BMW pre the "how have BMW got it so wrong" days, and changed to the new system without any issue whatsoever. Must have some German DNA in my blood.
