Let’s break this down a little. What is the definition of “automatic”?
“working by itself with little or no direct human control.” Seems clear to me. |

I'm not saying anything against autos here, otherwise this degrades to yet another auto vs manual discussion. I don't care which is faster, which is technically better or which is more fun. But a car that shifts automatically is an automatic pretty much by definition. I don't care about the voodoo behind the button and yes some autos are better than others. Is a DCT better than a slushbox? You betcha. Is it still an automatic? Yup. This is based on what you, the human driver do, not the tech.
That's all I'm saying. My personal preference is a manual gearbox. 3 pedals and a stick. That's me, that's what I like it's more fun to drive and a little more of a challenge and there's stupidity you can do with a manual you can't with an auto. What you choose is up to you. But that's a manual- because you have to actuate the clutch manually and manually select the next gear. Does that make sense? It's not the technical definition, it's the human definition. |
