NOW FOR SOME GOOD NEWS: Buttons are back and storage is king when it comes to car interiors. “‘People want easy, intuitive controls,’ Patel said. ‘They want wireless charging. They want surfaces that are easy to manage and clean, keep clean and clutter-free, and they want lots of places to store things. Oh, and the last thing is, they want easy access.’ So the new Rogue’s rear doors were engineered to open to 90˚ to make it easier to put in a kid’s car seat or help an elderly parent into the back. That would be less of a priority for a sedan being marketed at a more image-conscious customer, but vitally important for this segment.”
