I'm going to pre-emptively defend Tesla here, since they are usually the canonical touch screen example - Tesla cars have a volume thumbwheel on the steering wheel.

Passengers would just reduce the carbon footprint per transported person, which goes against the greenwashing stance of Musk cars.

Or put another way: those potential passengers should get their own Tesla, because more teslas are better for the environment.
