Which is interesting because it must mean if you do your test on an electric vehicle it counts as an automatic so you aren't licensed to drive manual transmissions. Most people would want their kids to have the flexibility to drive anything, so that's another reason for families to have an electric as a second car or not at all.
There's no need to peddle electric motorbikes. They have motors.
In a hybrid the wheels are driven by electric motors so there's no need for a changeable gearbox. If someone produced one with a gear lever then it would be no more than a software simulation of the effect of a manual gearbox.I'd happily buy a hybrid if I could get one with a manual transmission, but that seems to be beyond the ken of the car industry.
Oh well, at least no one's peddling electric motorbikes yet...
