The one I got has capactive buttons for a lot of things and physical buttons for temperature control/flow as well as volume. It still has 5 subscriptions, which you can opt out of and "disable" the connected services entirely, that said I am unsure if it truly disables it.
I instead opted for the mobile app remote start subscription and using home assistant to control it with the API to prevent having to use their awful app which also requires full precise location access to run.
Fun thing is I was considering Ioniq 5 and VW ID4 at the time and this article + the recent VW charging for throttle made me a lot happier with my purchase choice. Subaru still has an awful privacy policy but at least its slightly better than most.
