I bet they will charge customers for it on monthly subscription payments.

From the article,

"MB.OS is designed and developed in-house to retain full control over the customer relationship, ensure data privacy, and to leverage the unique integration of all car functions."

I guess "all car functions" will most likely be "leveraged" for separate fees eventually.

This is why I continue to put money into my 17 year old car that cannot be hacked, and cannot have it's features turned off, and cannot be forced to drive me to a location of someone else's choosing, and cannot be rendered unusable because of a glitchy software upgrade.

As a designer this is completely baffling to me. Like why? Its not like it’s hard to make modern, clean UI. Its actually much easier.

Interesting theory. But still, they could have leaned into another trend like glassmorphism or Neumorphism or made their own style.
