Manual vs automatic: Which is better?

@@jsnyadnula Well it's what we can only afford

@@anakinskymonke3670 yeah, saddening

Why though? If you live in a urban or suburban area (assuming you do, all but 14% of the population does) automatic will be better like 99% of the time. The only thing you'd need a manual for on roads is something like short-shifting to gain traction through a corner and the only reason you should be doing that is if you race (which I sure as hell hope you're not doing, especially in a Scion), otherwise its just dangerous driving. Don't get me wrong, I love the fun of manual shifting; I play racing games a ton (depending on the track anything between 40-70 shifts every minute and a half) and always use the manual shift option. However, do I think it is practical for daily use? No; I think its between slightly and extremely annoying when all I want my car to do is get me from one place to another. The only argument I really see for manuals that isn't just personal preference is the lower purchase and upkeep cost, although that doesn't really seem to be a factor in your decision, so at this rate I'm pretty sure you just have lost touch with the reality that automatic cars are better than manuals on paved roads (especially considering how you type the word "online" as two words; it screams that you haven't interacted with modern technology since 1980). If you want to shift, just get a sim racing setup and play racing games (total cost maybe $380 including the console, game, and sim setup if you buy all used); you'll be able to do it a lot more often (more = better, right?) and actually do some of the fun things you can do with manual shifting as opposed to hassling through gear changes on clogged city streets.

no clutch=no fun

Soo... Semi-automatics basically? Yeah, no. You either by an automatic or a manual but nothing in between that because that's literally stupid - especially for modern cars that already do a very good job managing fuel economy that there's literally no need to go into manual mode on an automatic.

to be honest once on the move you dont need use the clutch to change gear its down to the skill of the driver and being at one with the car listening to the engine and gearbox when it all gells gear changes no prob

In which country is imt available?

@@thurules India .... Maybe South Korea too.

Depends on the transmission itself. My dad bought a Toyota (The model doesn't get released in the west, I think it's an Asian market-driven model) and the A/T transmission is crap. I can drive the manual version and it'll be a lot more comfortable. Not because I'm good at driving, just because how crap some A/T can be.

@@kevins3821 might be but generally this is true

@@richardsonrichly8456 If you're the passenger, sometimes a manual car with a good driver can feel more comfortable than an autocar with a "bad" driver. But yea, usually A/T are more cozy, especially for the driver

Maybe too cozy some might tend to fall asleep on the wheel especially during long drives.

Manual is more fun.:-)

Finland has the most of cars manual so yes

Manuals used to be common here in the US. They are very rare nowadays.

Sadly, manual will eventually dissapear I guess. Just like combustion engines

@@DoorTechnicianRick Doubt that, if there are gears to shift somebody will be there to shift them. Manual cars won't go anywhere as long as our main mode of transport is the car. And still I would doubt they will go as the feeling of driving a manual is just so great and most motor sports have either manual or sequential.

@@DoorTechnicianRick They said that about the horse. And steam. Both are still used today. The only thing that will change is that they will only be used (and enjoyed) by enthusiasts, the same as horses and steam cars and trains have. Used for leisure instead of work.

I just got my license about like 1,5 month ago and im thinking to buy for my first car an automatic whats your opinion?

@@lightseeker123 Have you bought one? I haven't driven an automatic yet but if you go manual, might as well get one that has a hill assist or some kind. Getting stuck on traffic while uphill is kinda pain but manageable.

@@TsunaXZ i got my license with a manual car but after i got it im driving my dad's car😂 which is automatic and honestly its so comfortable man compared to manual

@@lightseeker123 get a manual if you can drive it? It's much more fun to drive than an automatic

@@lightseeker123 If you are in a super hilly or mountainous region, then manual as you can control the amount of engine braking (or engine power) much more easily which reduces chances of brake fade and early brake wear (if you use it properly, i.e. combination of both engine and brakes and not "riding the clutch" (not staying on the clutch causing it not to engage fully causing unecessary friction)). If you're in a city with very heavy traffic then automatic.

Well... I have my drivers licence for manual transmission since one whole year and it is NOT automatic yet, I suck at it too many times.

@@bryanguegan4006 The turning point when everything is automatic is when i drive alone, you probably think too much. I just use my feeling to changing the gear and how far to pressing the clutch

@@Kevin-fj5oe Yeah...

@@bryanguegan4006 been driving for 3 2,5 years, but then again i was trained by my asian grandfather. You probably has an idea how's that goes

In the UK most people take their test in a manual (passing in an automatic means your license only covers you to drive an automatic - restricting your choice of used cars). Generally people will only take their test in an automatic if they really can't cope with a manual. Because people have learnt to drive in a manual they then generally buy, drive and get used to a manual. I think you very quickly find that you don't even think about changing gear because, as you say, it just becomes an automatic activity. The problem comes when you get into an automatic after years of only driving manuals. The left foot won't keep still, and because automatics seem to have oversized brake pedals, the automatic reflex reaction of the clutch foot can result in some pretty harsh breaking when it accidently catches the brake pedal!

I will I'm 19 and can say I can drive a manual transmission

Biggest reason for manual is in my country price. Usually it's 2000+ USD for automatic (double clutch) + really expensive repairing after 15+ years. Yeah, when you live in rich country where 2000 USD don't make difference and you scrap your car when it hits 15 years you could chose automatic, but i poorer country it will be always manual

@@dab7805 I'm talking about AFTER getting your license. Plus, if you never practice something, how are you gonna get better at it? Driving instructors bring inexperienced people on the public roads all the time so they can learn. But after you get your license (meaning, after you've succeeded in proving your experience and what you've learned), then you will be on your own. And one day you WILL encounter traffic...All I'm saying is, instead of getting upset, nervous or irritated about it, look at it as a learning/refining experience. Won't be long till you realise you're driving a manual vehicle like an auto in traffic. (And yes I know, no one likes traffic. Even I don't. But I liked it during my learning days)

I hear that all the time but at 30 years old, I have yet to be presented with the scenario where I have to drive a manual lol. Also, both of my parents started off with manuals when they first learned how to drive and got their first vehicles but can not drive a manual anymore after years of driving automatics so I imagine that it's something you have to keep up on to stay good at, not necessarily as easy as riding a bike

They really can't multitask, because they'll be on their phone not paying attention to driving.

Automatics are more popular because people only look at the first few years of ownership which is under warranty. At best you'll save $50 a year on gasoline by choosing the auto but then when the car reaches 100k miles you'll have to pony up 5 grand for a new transmission. This is why manuals hold their value better on the used market in my observation.

Or get automatic if you’re handicapped.

Automatics are a more logical choice even if you can drive a manual fine. It's one less task to concern yourself with which means you can concentrate even more on the road and anticipate, they are safer for this reason.

@@henrywalton5967 they are safer in theory. In reality driving auto makes you less engaged and distracted more easily so in fact manuals are safer to drive.

I haven't driven any car though

That's unfortunate. They should become more technologically advanced and drive automatics. I learned a manual and drove it for 7 years in the States but there's really no point when automatic is easier on the driver and much more efficient with modern transmission technology. The whole "Europe is superior because we drive standard" rhetoric is so backwards its laughable. Comparable to a person riding a horse laughing at someone riding in a steam engine. "Haha you have to do less work because your technology is more advanced, so stupid." I've driven both for a decade. They can both be fun, but acting as if a continent is superior to another on the basis of a vehicles less advances transmission is borderline moronic. Acting as if driving a manual transmission is some difficult skill is absurd. Its quite literally simple to operate a manual transmission. I learned at 13 years old. I dont understand Europeans dying on this strange hill of "We DrIvE MaNuAl We ArE BeTtEr."

@@HistoricalWonder720 You really do be talking about Europe to become more technologically advanced? Well you do know where all the main car brands are from, do you? Manual is not old, it’s a choice. You can get any modern car with automatic transmission but most people here choose not to.

I have not found this true in Edinburgh Scotland, Leeds (south), around London proper. I have noted more manual shift in Germany, however not in an amount which is more than half.

Pardon, after I googled, I found as much as 80% if vehicles in the EU are manual. However this does differ with wealth.

Comfort items in cars evolved differently in different markets. The Hydromatic developed in Detroit in the 40s and 50s quickly became common because US cars offered base models with individual options. You could buy the big ticket option of automatic for +$300 and forgo the clock, tach, better upholstery fabric, .... That would nickle and dime easily to $300 (about a thousand by 1980) Air conditioning was the same in the 50s and 60s. Typical European "people's cars" were pretty bare bones and rough in the 50s/60s. Sure a Rolls or Benz were super cars, but a Morris Minor/Mini, Renault, Fiat or VW were tinny, old 30s tech and rattly. If a hydromatic was even offered it was as much as the cost of the car. It made little sense, especially as over half the population on the continent and UK only "drove" a bus or train seat until the 70s. By then habits had settled. I live in the US and have owned manuals since I was 16 in 77. However my Mom learned to drive on a 3 on the tree manual Ford, but by my childhood would never again consider driving a stick shift.

There’s really no such thing. Semi auto is automatic realistically

@@Triadii There is semi-auto.

The early cheaper semi-autos I driven felt horrible. Basically they felt like an automatic where you were trying to prod it into changing early. Press a button... wait a few seconds and it slowly slipped in. It didn’t feel like the solid instantaneous “bolt-action” gear shift of a manual. Maybe a modern dual-clutch semi thats more of a manual with a robotic gear change, are better?

keep some distance in uphill eith traffic. i dont ever need to think about speed and gears. cuz if wrong. ill change gears. and i also skip gears. 1. 3. 5 or 2. 4 im that lazy..this only works if you have a good car that can take this kind of abuse. it dosent hurt the trans if done right

Sounds like you should take your own advice and not cast such a big judgement blanket. I drive a manual because it's fun and engaging. Who's out here not letting people drive auto if they want? 🤔 Tf?

I dare you to drive your manual car here in manila

@@thepurge5661 Dude... You act like heavy traffic only exist in Manila... sure, given the longest I've been stuck in traffic was only 3 hours, I can imagine how it would feel if you stretched that out to your standards but driving my sister's automatic sedan is still annoying as F#@+ cause I can't pick and choose my gear ratios when I need it, I can't feather the friction zone when I need it, I don't have consistent engine braking which I feel gives me more control rather than relying on the brakes too much, I can't push start the engine if the battery dies, transmission problems cost a lot more money to repair, when I want to only use first gear to move a few meters it would suddenly switch to Second when I don't want/need it to, Manual Transmission last longer than Automatics, overtaking is annoying cause when I need torque and not horse power the damn thing would... Why!? Why can't I just trail brake, rev match and double clutch to get the torque I need at the time I need it... Sure... it's not a sports car (not like I have any experience driving one LOL) it's a Family Car, but for the love of God, the lack/delay in control/response isn't for me... not saying it's all bad it's just... I feel like the Cons outway the Pros on this one...

@@thepurge5661 Come here in India

@@partha2806 you still never seen bangladesh :v

@@thepurge5661 I dont understand, i dont know where is Manila (we are from different parts of globe) but where traffic is awful, either drive a scooter 50cc, or go walk. What's the point of driving a car 3 hours 15km/h... I wouldnt even drive a car there ( and i said idk where is manila, cause maybe is cold there, so u cant drive scooter, but i rly have no idea where is that)

Jakarta?

@@jamesmalik3355 Just Come to Dhaka, Bangladesh or New Delhi xd

@@hunkwasbisyan007 or Beijing, Seoul and jakarta

Because they care so much about outdated equipment in cars

Exactly

Adarsh u just met one

In my country mostly the kinds who just finished driving school and glorify manual transmission are driving it. And BMW crash dummies.

bruh you play too much nfs pro streets thinking that manual is faster than automatic

in modern days auto(and dct paddle shifters) are faster than manual

@@FarhanSaid.... car top speed depends on the engine and not on the transmission. Just saying.

@@randomrainbow8423 so basically you just power shifting (shifting gears without lifting off the throttle) in manual cars to shift faster untill the clutch gets burned 😂😂😂

@@FarhanSaid.... no? That's not at all what I said.

It's in San Andreas right?

@Fahad Ali Shah no

It's actually the highway next to the lost santos airport, i used this highway to get in the airport when i was a kid

or anyone of the 55,000,000 people who live in california

"True GTA fans" would imply its from an earlier title and the place is little known, everybody who has played GTA 5 at least once knows where that is

That’s what I’m seeing on the majority of these comments.

That’s exactly the reason half of these people chose manuals.

You seem to care enough to leave a comment. If you don't give a rats hat, why are you here?

CursedChad I’m here to get the info I needed. hell you talking about.

Or maybe I just like manual cars. Not everyone on the internet is a filthy seppo

As in sleeping in the car?

manuals dominate in the snow

Yeah; similar here. If I get in an automatic that has cup holder where the shifter sits & there happens to be a water/pop bottle there, then at some point I'll be shifting that pop bottle...

l do the same & since l use "Read the Road" (the term the cop that taught me used) l slow down earlier than most since l work out what most drivers are doing & using the gearbox l don't often use the brakes (l can drive on known roads without ever needing to use my brakes from start to parking in my garage, a skill l still practise) I have been yield at by cars pulling up beside me to use my brakes saying they almost hit me as they didn't know l was slowing down. Why? if they were paying attention to the road & driving to the traffic flow they should have noticed me slowing down before almost rear ending me. l also drive a 5 speed Toyota Corolla but with just under 140,000 kms on it (about 83,000 miles) :)

Dude, you are a real DRIVER.

You have good feeling to set the gear on all types of driving condition and take advantage on engine braking

Don't forget the new Corvettes and Supras, still very cool.

EXPENSIVEEEEEEEE!!!

Thats a Beast.

True , in some roads, where traffic is high changing gears make you so tired. And the comment section is filled with idiots , who is saying, automatics are reasons for rash driving and accidents, whereas in my country, where manuals dominate, the accidents and rash driving are high.
