A driver interface system (100, 200, 400, 600, 800) includes a steering wheel assembly (102, 202, 402, 602, 702, 802) and a display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822). The steering wheel assembly (102, 202, 402, 602, 702, 802) includes a variable-function input device. The variable-function input device includes a plurality of assignable functions and a present function being one of the plurality of assignable functions. The display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) is configured to display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) an image (226B, 526B, 726I) corresponding to the present function of the variable-function input device. The driver interface system (100, 200, 400, 600, 800) may include a plurality of display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) modes, and in response to a change in display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) mode, the driver interface system (100, 200, 400, 600, 800) may change the present function in the plurality of assignable functions. The steering wheel assembly (102, 202, 402, 602, 702, 802) may also include a touchpad (116, 216, 416, 716) configured to receive a handwritten input (736), and the display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) may be configured to display (122, 222, 322, 422, 622, 722, 822) an image (226B, 526B, 726I) corresponding to the handwritten input (736).
