On one hand I applaud the #SaveTheManuals aspect of this, but on the other hand, I have a feeling not only would this be an extremely limited market (I doubt the 3% of Manual Buyers want an EV) but the feel of a manual would not be there. The thing with a manual is that its not just about the transmission, but the engine is an important pairing to the transmission as well. The experience of revving out a motor across its gears, downshifting, building torque, heel-toe shifting, or hell even stalling will be hard to mimic with that of an EV motor which already produces its power immediately with no change in sound or feeling.
