I’ve been there, I did manual -> hybrid -> electric.

I did miss the stick when I was driving an hybrid. In the hybrid it felt like was I had to give away some of the control I had on the car by not being able to change gear.

With the EV on the other hand it’s totally different, the car is way more responsive, there is power the moment I press the pedal and the concept of gear disappear.

I don’t miss driving with a stick when driving an EV
