And where are you from? And how old? Not "do you" but just if you know how.

I'm in the US, mid 30s and can (and do) drive a manual transmission.

32m, American - No I can’t, as except for a short stint on a leased automatic gas car, I’ve owned only electric cars. And EVs are by definition automatic!

You can get manual electric cars, they're just rare. A lot of electric conversion cars can still be manual too.

That's sexy AF. I don't have the money to get one, but damn. That would be so much nicer than my Bolt.
