A good response. Civlised and to-the-point.
There’s no reason to do that with an electric motor (as far as I know). It would only reduce the efficiency. Maybe it’s something that the car enthusiasts could get on board with though?
I live in a country where manual transmission is the default. I drive a manual and I’m fine with it. This idea of fake manual transmission is bizarre to me. Who is it for? Car enthusiasts will know it’s fake and avoid it and surely your average driver will not care and would actually appreciate the simplicity of automatic transmission.
I switched my Alexa to Australian female voice as I found it less annoying than the default UK female one.
