We in Belgium are making the shift from all manual to all automatic.

For a real drive (race? Rally?) I absolutely agree that manual is just better.

For day to day commute, automatic is just a lot easier. And that, combined with the fact that in a few years every car being sold here will be an EV, will result in my kids never learning to drive stick.

Yeah I’m in the same boat. I love manuals all day every day, but got an older automatic Honda Accord as a commute daily because it’s just so much easier.

There may be EVs with manual transmission if Toyota decides to put it into production. I wonder if they can come up with some advantage from pairing electric motors with a manual transmission.
