A couple of weeks back mini lent us a new cooper with the updated Idrive System from BMWs installed.
The screen is not a touch screen and as you can see all the heating controls use conventional buttons, but the computer is controlled by the buttons on the centre console, the best bit is that to input text or anything you simply draw on the top of the control dial with your finger to type letters and text, extremely well designed and easy to use with absolute minimal time with eyes off the road.
This system has one awards
I'm not a fan of all the buttons down by the hand brake like that, it was similar to an A4 I drove recently, had to take my eyes off the road to see which button ms I was pressing, on the Focus, the buttons for the media are on the steering wheel or on the radio where you can see.
Changing the time on the clock is one button, adjusting the sound is one button etc, rather than going through menus.
