Stick shift drivers - would you get an electric vehicle?

posted 10 months ago

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?

All of my vehicles have been manuals. I’ll probably pass on full electric until there is more infrastructure. Right now, I would be looking at a plug-in hybrid.

I recently went manual to plugin hybrid and it’s been a joy.

I’d only consider another manual for a “fun” weekend driver or something.
