What about a car with an electrity-powered engine but with an actual manual transmission? Like, just replacing the combuation engine with an electric one…
There’s no reason to do that with an electric motor (as far as I know). It would only reduce the efficiency. Maybe it’s something that the car enthusiasts could get on board with though?
It’s not completely pointless, e.g. the Taycan has a two-speed transmission: One to have ludicrous torque to start rolling, the other to be more efficient at higher RPMs. Most EVs aren’t Porsches, though, and Taycans aren’t stick-shift.

That’s possible. Unnecessary moving parts, but possible.
