Jony Ive, la légende d'Apple, critique les écrans tactiles automobiles et soutient Ferrari Luce
La première voiture électrique de Ferrari s'apprête à défier l'une des tendances dominantes du design automobile moderne, et ce avant même sa révélation complète. Selon le légendaire designer Jony Ive, l'engouement de l'industrie pour les écrans tactiles géants est fondamentalement erroné, et la prochaine Ferrari Luce est prête à abandonner ce concept.
S'exprimant sur le projet, Ive a clairement exprimé sa position : les grands écrans tactiles n'ont pas leur place au cœur de l'expérience de conduite. Au lieu de cela, la Luce se concentrera sur l'intégration de la technologie numérique avec des commandes physiques et haptiques, permettant aux conducteurs de les utiliser sans quitter la route des yeux.
"D'un point de vue pratique et fonctionnel, un grand écran tactile ne fonctionne tout simplement pas dans une voiture. C'est incontestable. Je trouve cela facile et paresseux. C'est un domaine où il peut y avoir une fascination pour le style et la mode. Marc [Newson] et moi comprenons la culture, et nous avons beaucoup travaillé dans ce domaine. Mais il faut faire preuve de rigueur. Le design de l'interface utilisateur est également une discipline relativement nouvelle, et la raison pour laquelle nous l'avons développée pour les produits que nous avons créés était très claire", a-t-il déclaré.
Cette philosophie marque une nette rupture avec l'orientation actuelle de l'industrie, où de nombreuses marques ont transféré presque toutes les fonctions vers des menus à l'écran. Ive, surtout connu pour avoir façonné l'iPhone et les interfaces modernes des écrans tactiles, soutient désormais que cette approche ne convient tout simplement pas aux voitures, où la facilité d'utilisation et l'attention sont primordiales.
Jony Ive, Apple Legend, Critiques Car Touchscreens and Backs Ferrari Luce
Ferrari's inaugural electric car is already set to challenge one of the biggest trends in modern automotive design, even before its full unveiling. According to legendary designer Jony Ive, the industry's obsession with giant touchscreens is fundamentally flawed, and the upcoming Ferrari Luce will reportedly ditch the concept.
Speaking about the project, Ive clearly articulated his stance: large touchscreens have no place at the core of the driving experience. Instead, the Luce will focus on blending digital technology with physical, tactile controls that drivers can operate without taking their eyes off the road.
"From a practical and functional standpoint, a large touchscreen simply does not work in a car. It's undeniable. I find it easy and lazy. It's an area where there can be an infatuation with style and fashion. Marc [Newson] and I understand the culture, and we’ve done a lot of work in that space. But you have to be rigorous. UI design is also a relatively new discipline, and the reason we developed it for the products we made was very clear," he stated.
This philosophy marks a distinct departure from the current industry direction, where many brands have pushed almost every function into on-screen menus. Ive, best known for shaping the iPhone and modern touchscreen interfaces, now argues that this approach simply doesn't translate well to cars, where ease of use and attentiveness are paramount.
