I don’t really see the point of this. It’s just adding complexity for the sake of it. As far as I can tell when you change gear it just changes some software parameters, there are no physical gears. Yet there’s a clutch and the ability to stall?

      It’s already kind of dead in NA with some holdouts, the “crossover” mostly took over. Honda discontinuing the Fit here but introducing the HRV on the Fit platform is a perfect indicator of the overall trend.

        Honda discontinuing the Fit here

        I hadn’t heard this until now, and now I’m sad. The Fit was a great little car. Guess I better get one while they’re cheap.
