I 100% understand what you mean. I just bought a VW ID.4, and IMO they have a good balance. Everything needed for normal driving is handled with buttons, and although some are touch, they do have haptic feedback, and it works OK IMO.
I was looking at the Skoda Enyaq, because it has traditional buttons and more things operated through them.
But it cost about €5000 extra for the same features as is in our fully equipped ID.4 when used and 4 years old. But now I'm happy we chose the ID.4 instead of an Enyaq with fewer features. Because the ID.4 works way better than I expected.
It's crazy and previously absolutely unheard of that the Skoda version of a similar car to a genuine VW is more expensive.
Oh wow, it IS odd that Skoda would be more expensive and €5k is a lot! Very odd indeed.
I'm glad you found a car you like!
