I'd like to introduce you to the manual drive option on my 2014 Kia Soul.

[–] uranibaba@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Is it otherwise automatic? I never use the manual option for automagic gears.

Yeah it's normally automatic. The shifter has a +/- and I can move up or down with a little flick. The automatic transmission is otherwise annoying so sometimes I use that. Took a lot of getting used to.
