I believe, I’m quite sure really, the radio control was introduced with the Renault 25 back in … 1984 😃 and it’s been there ever since! It was intuitive right from the bat. I did own a 25GTX Phase 1, MARK I (couldn’t resist). Fabulous car! The comfort… and incredibly spacious, especially in the back. Front seats like sofas! Back to the audio part: the double DIN Philips 4x20W Radio Cassette unit (graphic equaliser included, how very eighties :) a very decent amplifier (especially for the time period) and 4 (or 6) speakers (dual cone) as standard. Not bad, not bad at all. The Renault radio stalk rules! I’m showing it renewed and therefore more love Mark! Take care, Philyvo

Car makers have been advised by Euro NCAP not to have important car functions on touchscreens, the idea behind coercing car makers to include more physical controls is to remove the growing reliance on touchscreens for basic car functions and keep the driver’s attention on the road ahead. “ Probably why most new cars have physical buttons for functions again.

Apparently...Jean-Miichel Jarre had some input with the "noise" you heard....

You get used to the stalk quickly. Honestly quite handy once you dailed in the muscle memory. I´m happy with my Megane E-Tech. Hard plastic on the side is indeed true!

That wobbly feeling could be due to a structural problem of electric cars with flat batteries. Due to their flat shape, even if they sit low (and that gives the car a low center of gravity, which is good for handling), they are wide which is very prejudicial to one of the three moments of inertia. Unless the car compensates that with a very stiff suspension, which compromises ride comfort, it is going to have that wobbly feeling. Very few manufacturers have actually decided to go for narrower batteries with inverted T shape (using the space the transmission tunnel would leave) to improve that, but then you have a slightly higher center of gravity. Still, they tend to handle better and allow for better suspension solutions, such as the Polestar 2. Just a guess, I don't know the car nor have I driven it.

Capture, Symbioz, Megane, Scenic, Rafale , they all look very similar and it is not just the usual corporate face, it is the whole SUV style that makes them a bit interchangable. They look quite good but is it necessary to copy the style across the whole range.
