minus-square@Nighed@sffa.communitylinkfedilinkEnglish17•22 days agoIt’s not that I like manuals, it’s that I hate automatics randomly shifting and accelerating/slowing down randomly because of it. It might not be as big an issue in bigger engines cars though, not driven anything bigger than a 1L engine in over a decade. Looking forward to a direct drive electric car (with customisable acceleration profiles - even better!)
minus-square@cucumber_sandwich@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish6•21 days agoDon’t these sports cars usually have a mode where you can manually shift gears, but not with a clutch, but via the auto transmission?
minus-square@Spider89@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish4•21 days agoYes. There are +/- paddles on mine. Source: My 2015 Hyndai Veloster TURBO
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish1•20 days agoHuh, so that’s what that’s for. Mines not a Hyundai but it does have a “sport” mode
