THE world’s largest carmarker has scrapped a “problematic” high-tech feature from all its motors.

Volkswagen is set to reintroduce physical buttons to their cars in a move away from the usual touchscreen.

Touchscreens and haptic sliders have been the norm for several years now as manufacturers have tried to make cars feel more high-tech.

However, they have proved problematic and potentially dangerous, so Volkswagen is set to eliminate them soon.

It comes after users complained that functions like radio volume, heater controls, navigation, and more have been difficult to perform on the move via touchscreen.

The new change is set to be a very welcome addition for motorists.

It will make controlling essentials such as heating much easier for the driver and front passenger.

Design chief Andreas Mindt told Autocar the firm it is committed to reintroducing physical buttons.

He said: “From the ID 2all onwards, we will have physical buttons for the five most important functions – the volume, the heating on each side of the car, the fans and the hazard light – below the screen.

“They will be in every car that we make from now on. We understood this.

“We will never, ever make this mistake any more. On the steering wheel, we will have physical buttons. No guessing any more.

“There’s feedback, it’s real, and people love this. Honestly, it’s a car. It’s not a phone: it’s a car.”

It comes after another major car brand discontinued its supermini in the UK after 10 years but has its replacement already lined up.

Mazda confirmed its Mazda 2 petrol motor can no longer be ordered brand new.

The motor landed on our roads in April 2015 and quickly earned praise for being fun to drive, and for its smart cabin and pace.

Despite two face-lifts in 2019 and 2023, which both added extra tech to the compact car, the car’s near ten-year run in UK sales has finally come to an end.

Only a “few hundred” examples are left in showrooms across the UK.

Meanwhile, Lexus has revealed it has discontinued its iconic LS saloon from the UK market after some 35 years.

Lexus‘ LS first arrived for British drivers in 1990 but had recently suffered from a sustained period of poor sales.

ndeed, just 39 of the hybrid V6-powered saloons have been purchased since 2020, of which just three were sold last year.

Following its axing, drivers in the UK looking for a Lexus saloon have just one choice left, the ES.

HOLLYWOOD megastar Michael Fassbender has declared who he wants to take over as James Bond – despite being in the running at one point himself. 

The Irish star, 47, has been one of the many names being bet on to take over as the new face of the 007 franchise, joining ranks including James Norton, Gangs of London’s Joe Cole, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Babygirl star Harris Dickinson.

But rather than take up the mantle, Michael has revealed who he would like to take on the role while promoting his latest movie, Black Bag. 

“Well, I think Regé-Jean Page could be a frontrunner after this, to be honest,” he told US Weekly. 

“I think he’s fantastic. He’s got all the attributes. So, let’s wait and see.”

Regé-Jean Page is best known for his role as Duke Simon Bassett in the first season of Netflix smash hit Bridgerton, though he has later appeared in Dungeons and Dragons, The Grey Man and US legal series, For The People. 

After his first appearance in Bridgerton back in 2020, he was rumoured to be signed up for Bond when he made the sudden announcement he would not be returning for season two of the sexy period drama, despite being the first season’s lead. 

As well as Fassbender, Regé-Jean’s contention for the Bond role was backed up by Naomie Harris, who herself has been part of the 007 world as Miss Moneypenny. 

She starred in three of the Bond movies alongside Daniel Craig, who gave up his role with his final appearance in 2022’s No Time To Die. 

“I think Regé would be amazing,” she said. “I’d love Regé to be the next James Bond. But who knows? I don’t know what’s going to happen.”

The comments come shortly after it was revealed the Broccoli family have handed the reins of James Bond over to Amazon. 

It’s expected it will be at least another three years before the iconic spy returns to our screens, with no announcement made on who will take over Daniel Craig. 

Despite fears on what it could mean for the series – with worries the quintessentially British character could be made American or even female – insiders have since dispelled the rumours. 

An insider told the Mail on Sunday: “Amazon is committed to keeping the spirit of Bond alive and that means he has to be British or from the Commonwealth – and he has to be male.”

They added: “Jeff is a massive Bond fan and while he’s excited to see how Amazon can take the franchise forward there are certain things which are sacrosanct.”

CELEBRITY SAS: Who Dares Wins has been pulled back from the brink after Channel 4 bosses made a last-minute decision to keep the show alive — despite plans to quietly axe the hit series.

The brutal reality show, which pushes celebs to their limits in gruelling military-style challenges, was set to be cut from the schedule.

But after seeing footage of the upcoming series, execs couldn’t let it go.

A TV insider revealed: “Channel 4 never officially announced that Celebrity SAS had been dropped, but behind closed doors, they had decided not to bring it back — at least for the time being. 

“It’s an expensive show to make, as far as reality shows go, and budgets have been tightened.”

The most recent series of the SAS: Who Dares Wins celebrity spin-off was completed by Love Island star Georgia Harrison and boxer Lani Daniels.

Another installment, due to air this year, has already been made.

The source added: “They filmed a series in 2024, which will air later in 2025, and that was quietly considered to be the last one they would make.

“However, it’s a beloved franchise and they have had a last-minute change of heart after doing the edit for the unaired series that’s in the can.”

Now, the show’s future is back on track, with the next course to be filmed later this year and air in 2026. 

Casting talks are already underway to find the next batch of brave celebs willing to face freezing water submersions, terrifying heights, and relentless shouting from the show’s no-nonsense directing staff.

The next instalment promises to be as intense as ever, with contestants pushed to their physical and emotional limits in some of the toughest challenges on TV.

And sources have told The Sun bosses are already in talks with famous faces for the 2026 celebrity series.

The Sun previously revealed N-Dubz star Fazer was in talks to appear on the show.

A telly insider told us: “Fazer is really keen to have a go on SAS: Who Dares Wins and has had some promising conversations so far.

“There’s no denying the popularity of N-Dubz and Tulisa‘s recent appearance on I’m a Celebrity proves that.

“Fazer joining the line-up would be good for both him and the show and it’s lookling like a done deal at the moment.”

Tulisa, Fazer and bandmate Dappy reunited in 2022 after a hiatus of more than a decade and hit the road a year later for a sell-out arena tour.

A representative for Celeb SAS has been contacted for comment.
