Ever since Tesla slapped that massive screen onto the dash of a Model S, every other brand has been chasing bigger, brighter, higher-res screens to compete. It's a trend that's become increasingly obnoxious, though thankfully BMW i interior designer Matthias Junghanns says that the trend is soon coming to an end.
"Is it the big screen that counts? I'm personally convinced that these black glass surfaces in the car interiors are… we will leave that behind, sooner or later," he said during a recent roundtable webinar with fellow interior designers from Polestar and Pininfarina.
Junghanns went on to say that the intelligence of car systems will reach a point where they can provide all the tech, information, and functionality you need but with displays that only appear when needed.
