Fake manual transmission is basically like playing a simulator.

    Electrics aren’t automatic, they have continuous transmissions, there are no distinct gears. It’s not bad, you get used to it.

        EVs don’t have CVTs. They don’t have a transmission at all. Even the reverse is just the engine spinning opposite. The engine is connected directly to the drive shaft.

        I think the previous poster means that from a driver perspective they operate the same as a CVT. But it’s not. It’s just a battery, an engine, a drive shaft and wheels.

          Then I guess it’s a good thing I didn’t say EVs have CVTs then, isn’t it?

          Don’t argue with something I didn’t even say, homie. I was pointing out that a CVT is in fact a type of automatic transmission, nothing more.

            I’m not arguing the link you posted. The previous poster used a wrong description is all. You replied to that. Just setting things straight.
