By modern automotive standards, manual transmissions are already obsolete. That said… They’re so damn fun to drive, and you feel way more in control because in some sense you are. Just not in the power and fuel savings that the machine picks
EVs are even better - you’re fully in control of the power, without an engine and transmission imposing a bunch of limits and power bands based on engine RPM and vehicle speed.
You actually get the experience that automatic transmissions promise but fail to deliver. If you want power, press the pedal. If you want more power, press the pedal more. That’s it. No power fade, surges, hiccups as it shifts, etc.
I prefer a manual to an automatic, but they’re both obsolete. Electric motors just do as they’re told.
