I was specifically looking for a manual transmission car so that I could control both speed and shifts myself. The only way to save fuel with a manual transmission is to shift into neutral and drive the car while it is in motion. Personally, I never do that as I love speed and prefer fast driving. I even ordered an kit to program the main control box to add some horsepower to my car.

In fact I think electronic throttle bodies on smart selectable transmission running on eco mode probably fully open the throttle when you press over a certain amount, pressing further just tells the ECU you want more power so downshifting occurs.
That’s just my guess, if not, I have no idea how automatics would even approach manuals in fuel economy.

It’s pretty much impossible to keep an engine over 80% loading with an automatic transmission so fuel economy will always suck in comparison to shifting yourself according to bsfc.

Driving manual was never taught in school and I’ve never known anyone with a manual car, so it’s not a skill I ever had to pick up. I wouldn’t mind learning to drive manual for a fun car, but for just commuting back and forth to work and going shopping an automatic is fine.

And there are people whose driving “stule” cannot be comprehended by the control logic of automatic transmission.

I can’t imagine how people can suck at automatic transmission
They forget there are only two pedals and hit the brake pedal when they try to shift. I’ve heard of someone crashing that way.

Nothing scares me more than a 2nd Gen Mitsubishi Pajero Sport (called Montero Sport here in the Philippines) having an SUA issues. It’s usually with the electronic gas pedal sensor glitching or people who suck at automatic transmission.
Whenever I see one up front or behind, i’d frantically walk or run away as far within it’s driving range.

Reminds me of when Volvo made the S80 with a V8. It’s cool when companies decide to go a little crazy.

Have you heard about the Ramcharger?
Ram is going to make a series hybrid truck, meaning it will be electric powered with a gas engine (the Pentastar V6) only to charge the battery. The figures Ram quotes are impressive: 663 horsepower, 615 pound-feet of torque, 0-60 in 4.4 seconds, 14,000 pounds towing capacity, 145 miles of pure electric range, and 690 miles with a full tank of gas. Plug it in often and you can run on pure electricity for a normal commute and if you have to drive farther it’s no problem. If Ram pulls this off it will be big.

I saw someone share this car on facebook recently. 2003 Infiniti M45. This generation is very underrepresented. I’ve never seen it before, but I see tons of other Infiniti M’s. It has a V8 and some epic looking chrome wheels. It was only sold between 2002-2004, pretty small sliver in the sporty sedan world.

@RainbowDash69
Is that a real prototype or just a render?
I wouldn’t be too surprised if the Camaro did become an SUV at some point. Performance SUVs are hot and GM doesn’t have any I’m aware of except the Escalade V, despite SUVs and trucks being GM’s bread and butter.
I doubt Camaro fans would be on board with an electric crossover, though.

I am today years old when I learned Lexus is a luxury subsidary of Toyota rather than an EU or American brand.
If I were to have a dream supercar, it’s the LFA. The Whitney Houston of all automobile sounds.
