My guess is your hope will come true. Concepts are almost always more tech-y and minimalist than the actual production versions which have to account for cost and practicability.

Well I got my fingers crossed. Also, this might be an unpopular opinion, but I really hope they move to a more mechanical-feeling "shifter" or at the very least, for the column shift lever I already see in the concept vehicles, make it a shifter that doesn't return back to the same position by default. Meaning, if I pull it down to put it in drive, it stays down until I shift back into park or neutral and if I shift into reverse, it stays up, until I put it in park or neutral.My guess is your hope will come true.

It might seem like an inconsequential nitpick, but what that little skeumorphism does for muscle memory and unconscious awareness for your vehicle's drive state can't be understated. It makes a big difference and they wouldn't have to change much, other than the detent mechanism and maybe some pcm logic.
