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?

    Waiting for a sporty Honda ev.

    genuinely thinking of electrifying my old honda element, there’s plenty of space in the front for the motor and under the frame for batteries…

      Honda element would be awesome as an EV. There’s a lot of versatility in that vehicle. I wouldn’t be brave enough to do it though.

        I’m not terribly ambitious - if I could get 80-120m range even. I love how it handles the dogs, construction supplies, fuck I’ve moved motorcycles and desks in the damned thing, it’s just handy af. and fits in a compact space.
