Touch screens are available today in almost all new models, but little is known about the appearance of the first cars with a touch screen in the mid-1980s.
The Graphics Control Center (GCC) system, which has been installed on the Buick Riviera since 1986, pioneers modern in-car multimedia displays.
Unlike today’s touch screen technology, GCC countries use a cathode ray tube like older models of televisions or computer monitors.
The contents and functions of this system are accessed via distinct rectangular fields on the 4″ x 3″ monochrome screen located at the top of the center console.
The GCC system had a plethora of content as standard, such as a trip computer, air conditioning control, radio, and even a mini diagnostic center that monitored the condition of the engine and brake system.
You can see what the Buick Riviera’s touchscreen multimedia system looked like in the attached video.
