Not knowing a lot about cars, let a lone EV, why could this a dangerous idea? I think EVs are by default automatic, so would a virtual transmission add another unneeded point of failure on the cars speed regulation systems or is it something else?
Almost all EV’s skip-out on the transmission or gearing part entirely. They aren’t even adding one here, just simulating it with software. Some won’t even have differentials. Safety issue though? I doubt it.
This seems like a liability to be prohibited. Whoever proposed it and did it, should be sued - it is bound to cause accidents!
