Most of not-North-America drive around in manual vehicles. Have to wonder what the allure is of something which is kind of mundane and boring. When I'm driving a manual I'm not thinking I'm Steve McQueen, instead I'm just constantly shifting gears between sets of traffic lights. If people really want to connect with a car, then buy an EV. Instant torque and responsiveness without screwing around with extra sticks and pedals or suffering the rubber banding in some automatics.
It depends on what sort of experience you want, what roads you drive, whether it's mostly country or city, do track running etc.
I like manual more for various reasons. I don't do much city driving nor do I get stock in heavy traffic ques. I drive country roads and highways and do a few track days. With a manual I get a much more satisfying experience, as it requires more skill to make fast and/or smooth shifts. The tactile feel of the manual gear shifter makes me feel more connected to my car. Flappy pads shifting automatic doesn't require the same skill nor has the same tactile feel. It's awesome for city and ques though.
I don't think we have the same idea of what it means to be connected with the car. Most EVs aren't seeking to have you drive them, they are seeking to drive you, imho (except maybe the Hyundai N range thats coming, but only because it tries to manic cars).
I think it's about being an underdog in America. That's usually what their politics are about.
I don't see the appeal of manuals. I just want to get from point A to point B, I don't want to have to think about it anymore than necessary. Driving to me is a chore and a hazard.
