Can you recommend a new automatic?

I have a 2003 Honda Civic automatic that I want to change. I have difficulty using the automatic gearshifts, where you have to press a spring loaded 'latch' to move the shift into drive etc. Is there a car where the shift can be moved by pressing the brake pedal and then moving the gear shift, similar to my Civic?

Toyota Auris or Toyota Prius hybrid. The shift lever is more like a switch.
