I'm stuck on this personally. I love my manual, I have a tiny little Mazda 2 and I have driven that thing absolutely everywhere because I can control it better than any automatic I've ever driven. But I've been casually looking for a new car and I'd love to have an electric, but I don't want to lose that level of control and everything I love about a manual.

What do you all think? What's your take?

1 pedal driving is one of my favorite things about my EV. I've always thought automatic transmissions are kind of silly for one reason: "What do you mean I can't just not press the go pedal and have it not go? Why do I have to specifically press the stop pedal for it to not go? Why isn't not pressing the go pedal enough for it to not go? Doesn't anyone else see how silly this is?"
