    I would love this. I hate driving in general because traffic fucking sucks, but if i do have to drive, let me have an engaging experience. Shitfing is the only fun thing about driving

    Clearly not for the typical “i commute a bazillion hours every day” people kind of feature.

      This isn’t letting you control when the “shifting” happens. It’s just cutting the power for a small period at preset speeds like an automatic transmission ICE.

        I haven’t read the article tbh, i just clearly understand where the desire for it comes from. Also, what you describe seems to fit well for what “weird people who like shifting” want?

        I was just surprised how many comments here were very much against even the idea of having to shift again
