  • Why is that? It’s not an efficiency thing, EVs are far more efficient than and manual will ever be. It’s not a shift thing, humans haven’t been able to outshift automatics for quite a while and EVs don’t have gears. The only think I ever hear is a flimsy “soul” thing, which frankly EVs give power to masses more than any Mustang GT could. Hell, Hyundai started putting in fake “gear shifts” into their EVs for people who wanted that.

  • Yeah the nice thing about EV motors, they can vary their power output hundreds of times per second so they don’t need a transmission as it can basically do everything a transmission can right from the motor. Some cars even put the motor in the wheel so you don’t need a drive axle. Overall the mechanical complexity of EVs are greatly reduced.

    For an EV conversion it makes sense that you’d lock things to a single gear as you wouldn’t want to stress out the transmission from sudden power variances.

  • manual transmission EV

    For what reason? Almost all EVs only have a single gear. The high performance ones will have two as most and that’s well into the triple digit mph. Reverse doesn’t require seperate gearing either.

  • Japan’s long-standing efforts to protect domestic farmers from outside competition, including limiting imports of foreign rice

    Here’s the why in case anyone is wondering. It’s not a global issue.

  • I remember when cable was analog, channels you didn’t pay for were blocked with a frequency filter. let’s say channels 13-60 were 425-475Hz (purely an example) there would be a little device connected to your coax that would filter it out. The thing was though, they did this in the cable box usually in your yard. So all you had to do was go out at night, pop the box open (wasn’t hard) and remove the filter to get free channels.

    Then they moved to digital and all things changed.
