One of the best videos from MotoWagan. I studied for two years before buying a new car (in March 2023 I purchased a new car). I like driving, and I use the car for long-distance only. For office, I go on a walk or cycle. My previous car was a 2010 Swift Dezire Manual Diesel (Fiat Engine). After my study, I found that very few vehicles of my choice were in the market. After a lot of test drives, I decided to buy Jeep Compass. I tested the Compass automatic and decided to go for it as my next car after some time. Then, in February 2023, I drove a Compass manual Diesel car. Oh, it was amazing, and I decided to book it immediately. I booked it and then got the manual diesel SUV in the first week of March 2023. Had I not tried the manual Compass, I would not have purchased a new car or delayed my purchase. For those who like driving and encounter less bumper-to-bumper traffic, Manual is the car for them. I drove Goa-Chennai-Kanyakumari-Trichy-Chennai-Ooty-Mysore-Chennai-Goa during my two-month vacation. The manual is the driver's car… OIIIIIIIO
I’m planning to buy a new car in 2025. I am 72 and have been driving manual diesel car for 35 years. I’m having the prime time of my life. I even ran 5k race and did reasonably well. Manual or automatic, that was my dilemma. After reading your comment I think I will go for another manual car again. Thanks for your input.
Manual cars are the best and everlasting. No matter how many automatic comes manual are always the king in all roads and perfectly engages with the driver. Entire control will be in drivers hand and good understanding creates between driver and the car. Manual cars are very useful in highways and even in city roads. But if a person completely going in heavy traffic jams and his daily work is going to be in traffic conditions only means automatic is better. But if you want to drive both in city and highway means then don't have any second thought just go for manual only. Cost effective and the best in control is manual only. Manual just listens to what we say. Manuals are always the best. ❤❤❤
@@Myworld8354 yes correct automatic cars are more comfort to drive in busy traffic. But a person all the entire week or entire month or year not going to drive only in traffic. When it's a weekend or weekoff or some leaves if a person wishes to go for a long drive or to out of city or some tourist destinations definitely manual car only will be more comfortable as we want to drive and car should not drive us. We can just put our desired gear at any time a get a quick raise in speed or lower the speed and enjoy the driving pleasure. As this driving pleasure and satisfaction comes in manual only.
Automatic is a technology is western countries for the last 30 years. It makes life so easier - picking gear is like picking a button phone over touch phone
Very simple if you are a city oriented driver and even if you love manual transmission, close your eyes and buy automatics. Nowadays we notice the sudden jump in automobile sales which leads to high traffic even in village roads. Only go for manual if your primary drive is is highway. In manual cars how sedate we drive in heavy traffic we will burn the clutch more than automatics.
Good video. BUT. Manual drive mostly preferred by Rent a drivers as it is easy to do racing on highways. The rent drivers struggle and fed up a lot while driving Automatic during overtaking.on highways. But, nowadays big SUVs having sudden rise of speed facility with ease. Automatic is useful for family driving , city driving, relaxed driving, patience driving and new drivers.
Yes.. Exactly.. A manual is a manual is a manual.. I have bought punch amt 1.5 years back... As such the engine power to weight ratio is less.. But, in an amt with its untimely shifting, I feel it more..now instead of down shifting once to increase power I sometimes down shift 2 gears.. It's a small hassle,but One that I can ignore for the sake of safety.. What I'm trying to say is Here if I had a manual, even the punch I could have made it run according to my liking.. Maybe in some places instead of downshifting twice, I just need to down shift only once... Before punch I've had maruti omni for 20 years.. So I know the fun of driving manual....

From the START to THE END... That WIDE SMILE was VERY EVIDENT on your Face Asir Bro... And that smile was CONTAGIOUS... MANUAL is MANUAL... Keep up the good work. God Bless You...
Yes Asir Sir. Same conflict happened. I wanted to get xuv300 w4 Diesel at 11.4 On road(at that time) Wife wanted to get Altroz DCA. Enough said I guess You know the 300Nm torque. I didn't care about touchscreen I can install it after market. But the 300Nm torque and 115hp. All 4 disc brakes, 6 gears, decent handling and excellent ride quality. I did a test drive This is a very important video that people need to see and understand. Not many people understand.
@@DrivingEnthusiastIN Drag races without any traffic is for amateurs. There is no skill there. Just 0-100 timings. For that you need to go with petrol, especially NA petrols that do 100 in 2nd gear. But in real world, the 40-100kmph in 4th gear, 60-120kmph in 5th, 80-140kmph in 6th timings. That determines how fast you can go in highways and no one can get close. For these, Petrols fail miserably unless you downshift quite a lot and you lose mileage as well
I'm a pure diesel head bro, own a ford freestyle diesel, I am in the market for upgrade When I driven it, it needs to be upshifted too often over my FS which is the main motto of my comment. This gearbox is shared with Thar which is fine for That but definitely not good for xuv300 is my view, even xuv700 is not such short geared
Very true sir we never get the confidence during sudden overtaking in automatic wherein in manual the vehicle will be under control of driver when the engine dynamics and handling of that car is understood. Any day manual is gold standard while automatic is for convenience.
Very simple formula. Go for Manual: ..if you drive maximum in highways ..if you want full control of the car .. if you are driving enthusiastic.. .. if you want less maintenance. Go for automatic ... If you use the car in cities for commuting to office daily with occasional highway driving ... If you can spend more for the automatics in terms of initial and total maintenance cost for the driving comfort.
One advantage though i see with automatics especially the ones that have more gears than manual Example Xl6 manual has 5 gears While XL6 TC has 6 TC does 100kmph at 2k rpm😮 Manual does it in 3k rpm
I do agree with the emotions of the manual car driving. But the harsh truth is the vehicle population is increasing exponentially and so is the traffic and the chaos. In Metros like chennai where I commute for my profession and drive approximately 60 to 70 km per day , wading through an automatic car saves a lot of energy and time. Like it or not automatic cars are the feature. I have moved to the AMT bandwagon for the past 8 months.
5 years i used a manual it was connected well, last 9 months i have been using Nexon ev max which also well connected and and fun to drive. Recently i drive my friend skoda kushaq which is lagging and i feel its not connected like manual. As you mentioned automatic vs manual is absolutely true. But eletric automatic is really a true automatic experience. Like petrol refinement and diesel like torque. Eletric drivability is way ahead in automatic.
Sir. You have to compare city traffic,number of vehicles increased in last five years, road conditions etc. Whatever you said is perfect for highway only. City driving is now nightmare and manual will be headache. You cannot enjoy driving
I was fighting this inner battle of choosing whether manual or automatic for some months before choosing my car. I decided on Honda Amaze VX, but was very confused on manual or automatic CVT. I took for test drive both, CVT was smooth enough, but on other hand, this is my first car, so I thought "ooh God how will I shift gears correctly and ride and this being the first car, I hesitated. but I realized it isnt for me as the speed was very very linear and I felt like the initial pickup was missing and when you rev, it creates a noise rubber band effect they call it. So I decided on Honda Amaze VX Manual and I am very grateful that I took this choice as it is a delight to shift gears and ride now. I was missing that interest to drive in automatics, I went with manual and took it for a spin.
I’m probably one of the viewers watching your channel from the beginning. I can see the level of professionalism you have reached and progressing towards. And contents are unique and delivery is well paced & detailed. Keep the good work going👏 I generally don’t write comments, but you broke the ice. 👍

Im using Punch AMT - i usually go with family and concerened about them, least bothered about fun drive... i enjoy my long drives, hassle free... very convenient in bumber to bumper traffic, I love automatic. and Congratulations, you titled Automatic vs Manual and you did not speak about who all can buy Automatic cars. thanks
Though I'm a drive enthusiastic person, forced myself to get an automatic because of irritating chennai traffic. At the end of the day, I need peace after driving almost 1 hour.

I've become a fan of yours sir, the last part about taking a joy ride on a bad day with a manual car that can communicate better with you and calm you is a priceless experience.
I bought a Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDi in 2003 . It was a manual but what a car. No other car can beat it. Manual is always best for driving on highways and hills. PS: Still I own it .

Thanks a lot asir taken test drive of honda elevate cvt but i like manual only cvt only available on that day ,going for elevate manual ..because manual is always manual , as a manual lover we can feel ur joy in your face at 13.03 ..in peak traffic also we will adopt the driving it become a normal thing for manual lovers ,form 2014 to 2017 vista2017 to 2020 march ignis now baleno from chrompet to Mounroad in peak traffic all vehicles are manual . .Good content thanks filled with heavy work ,now mind is cleared .its really so much fun taken the manual cars to hills for longdistance always puts a smile on our face..
Superb videos. A manual is a manual is a manual when you need speed that one gear down and pulling is a gem that only a pure manual lovers will understand. This is a last era of manuals so if you know to drive manual buy n enjoy.
Unfortunately i fall in the latter. Solid reasons to buy manual is well explained. But Drive once in chennai GST road till guindy in the morning hours or try driving to chennai from south during holidays. All your emotional connect etc will request your left leg to give a rest. One cannot even reach 2000 rpm irrespective of the engine size. Automatic all the way. I drive a seltos torque converter AT and it is very good due to its punchy bottom end.There is always manual mode available if i want to push the rev range.
I completely agree your views 👍👍Nowadays we hardly find manual car in test drive. I have faced this while going along with friend .. it looks like market want us to go to automatic ly.
Same of the best videos from MW. Perfect camera angles, spot on audio without any wind noise, Engaging soulful dialogue delivery by Asir Anna, Electric Blue s variant with Manual gear sticks.. My only query to Automotive makers is we always had Automated Manuals AMT, Why is it not possible to retain manual Clutch pedal in AMT transmission, which should only work when Manual sequential shifting is selected?
I don't know that why do the people are ignoring talks about IMT gearsbox... i was using last 1year sonet turbo IMT, initial 2weeks i felt difficult to switch my mindset from manual to IMT... But now i am surely tells that, IMT will give you driving pleasure in both highway and city traffic... I have driven my car in all road condition nowhere i felt it a automatic car, it's just a simplified version of Mannual cars..❤🤷
MANUAL IS THE BEST. I WAS IN HIGH RANGES, ENJOYED MANUAL GEARBOX ALL THE YEARS. NOT NECESSARILY NEEDED HIGHER OPTIONS , ONLY NEED A BASIC OPTIONS. AND NOW IN POLLACHI, A BIT UPS AND DOWNS Geographical Layouts.. NORMAL HIGHWAY TRIP TO NGL, KKAVILLAI. NEED MANUAL GEAR BOX, PRAY TO GOD FOR GOOD HEALTH. TNKS.
Asir bro what an explanation, you nailed it ! Those last words i experienced myself, whenever i was drained out I'll take my Swift Diesel to a drive and revv it to the most and enjoy/discharge my feelings 👍
Great content by Asir bro on the uniqueness of manual cars! This is possibly his best video in terms of demonstration apart from his in-depth car reviews. My love for cars and driving went up a notch today ❤
One of the best from Motowagon team. Carefully curated and this video shows the knowledge they have in their field. At last Manual is a Manual. I love manual cars and I am a proud owner of Grand i10 which is buttery smooth in both highway and city. Good job ppl.
A much needed content MotoWagon. I think audience will understand what you are trying to convey here if you show the gear ration difference in each gear shit.
appada Asir Anna 1.3 DDIS nalla engine + Manual nu solrapo ena ku appadi happy ya iruku... Yenna Swift suthama as a product ah Anna considerey pana maataru... Indha oru karanam dhan na 8 +yrs agium vandi maathama iruken😄
One incident i was driving manual transmission. I stoped in toll gate counter, accidentally i press accelerator instead of brake pedal. But my left leg muscle memory press clutch pedal automatically. So vehicle doesn't move. After that i realised if im driving automatic transmission and press accelerator pedal it's very costly.
You expressed my thoughts about the manual transmission...❤ Through your experience and study across cars. I can command while over taking by reducing to 3rd gear from 4th in my Ritz DDIS... And both me and the car Will talk to each other through this transmission...😊
Agree manuals are very soulful when the conditions are good such as lubricants, wheel alignment and steering settings. If you are using the car in big cities then we often lose wheel alignment due to potholes and speedbreakers. Also due to dust and abuse in 1st gear the mechanicals become rough. Manuals are bliss in towns, villages and winding roads. I wish I had my Punto in Travancore but wasted much of its life in Bengaluru. Ivtec are awesome but fall short on suspension and steering. So bottoming we need a few cars to satisfy different moods
Manual for enthusiasts. Automatic for comfort. Automatic sounds more practical in city and occassional highway drivings. Occasional means 200-300 kms in a strech, two or three times in a month.
What ever said every one showing Tata build quality on accident with Maruti car but please explain Maruti or Suzuki is build with crumble zone that it will protect people than the car
தாங்கள் சொன்னது உண்மை நான்1985. (Ind)ஓட்டுனர் உரிமம் 20ஆண்டு வளைகுடா நாட்டுஅனுபவம் அனைத்து நாட்டு AMT,Manual. Transmission. வண்டிகளும் ஓட்டியுள்ளேன். ஆனால் Manual gear box போல வண்டி நம்கட்டுப்பாட்டுடன் அனுபவித்து ஓட்டுவது போல் வரவே வராது So lam too much Like the Manual Transmission only. Thank-you somuch 👌👍👋
This video is made by a manual transmission lover. But, automatic is the best. There is a reason for 99% of USA preferring automatic. Even when you are young, save your knee health by driving an automatic car.
If we want to enjoy the car we need to buy automatic, I have driven 7 different manual cars and have covered more than 6,00,000 miles (9 L kilometre) in UK alone with manual transmission and switched to automatic cars in 2018, believe me manual cars make city driving very hectic even in UK. I am currently planning to drive car in India and obviously my first choice will be automatic just to cover the uncertainties happening across. Go for proper automatic or EV cars(Not AMT) Only then we could enjoy the car and driving in city, Happy driving
Hi Bro...Even i love Manual and i like mainly when im driving in the Hill(while climbing and also coming down - always use Gear to slow down the vechile - not to use breaks) and sometimes while overtaking other slow verhicles...can you explain more on using the Manual/Automatic car in Hill stations..which will be helpfull for others...
If you know how to drive an automatic, Automatic is the more fun to drive car ever than a manual. “aada theriatha siluku kaal la suluku naalaam”.. !! Automatics help you have more concentration on the road by avoiding unnecessary distractions like shifting gears/engaging clutch at the right time. Floor it ! There you go ! Paddle shifters are handy nowadays ! Manuals in 2023 is a bad choice! Automatic aluthuna pogathu is a myth. Unaku alutha theriala is the fact !!! It’s a learning curve, people are not willing to learn and enjoy the comfort of technology and people like you who still fuel it. Rather saying automatic is not enthusiastic, why don’t you learn and work on it to make it enthusiastic ??? Just think, if manuals are enthusiastic. Do you think BMW/Merc/Audi are stupid to sell their cars only in automatic (except 1/2 models)?. The reason is they have worked on their automatics to be enthusiastic. Period.
Aptly put..people who have never driven an automatic are the ones who always say automatics are bad. Get a proper automatic, use manual mode if needed, drive in comfort.
With more women started driving cars automatic is going to increase moreover it is convenient in heavy city traffic,i fondly remember people made fun of people buying non gear scooter few decades ago and how it changed the perception, automatic is the future.
Thank you for this video. With all the different options available in the market one can get confused very easily. But nothing can change the mind of a passionate driver who loves every bit of his ride. How much ever a car is good at performance, a manual shift makes it 100x better to drive.
Manual is always good. Choose automatic only if you drive more than 2 hour in bumper to bumper traffic. Daily driving in bumper to bumper traffic for 2 years will create knee pain(long clutch travel) and needs treatment. So choose as per your usage.

Superb videos. A manual is a manual is a manual when you need speed that one gear down and pulling is a gem that only a pure manual lovers will understand. This is a last era of manuals so if you know to drive manual buy n enjoy.
Unfortunately i fall in the latter. Solid reasons to buy manual is well explained. But Drive once in chennai GST road till guindy in the morning hours or try driving to chennai from south during holidays. All your emotional connect etc will request your left leg to give a rest. One cannot even reach 2000 rpm irrespective of the engine size. Automatic all the way. I drive a seltos torque converter AT and it is very good due to its punchy bottom end.There is always manual mode available if i want to push the rev range.
Jeep compass pathi sollum pothu unga face la ungala ariyama smile varuthu bro❤
I completely agree your views 👍👍Nowadays we hardly find manual car in test drive. I have faced this while going along with friend .. it looks like market want us to go to automatic ly.
Same of the best videos from MW. Perfect camera angles, spot on audio without any wind noise, Engaging soulful dialogue delivery by Asir Anna, Electric Blue s variant with Manual gear sticks..
My only query to Automotive makers is we always had Automated Manuals AMT, Why is it not possible to retain manual Clutch pedal in AMT transmission, which should only work when Manual sequential shifting is selected?
I don't know that why do the people are ignoring talks about IMT gearsbox... i was using last 1year sonet turbo IMT, initial 2weeks i felt difficult to switch my mindset from manual to IMT... But now i am surely tells that, IMT will give you driving pleasure in both highway and city traffic...
I have driven my car in all road condition nowhere i felt it a automatic car, it's just a simplified version of Mannual cars..❤🤷
MANUAL IS THE BEST. I WAS IN HIGH RANGES, ENJOYED MANUAL GEARBOX ALL THE YEARS. NOT NECESSARILY NEEDED HIGHER OPTIONS , ONLY NEED A BASIC OPTIONS. AND NOW IN POLLACHI, A BIT UPS AND DOWNS Geographical Layouts.. NORMAL HIGHWAY TRIP TO NGL, KKAVILLAI. NEED MANUAL GEAR BOX, PRAY TO GOD FOR GOOD HEALTH. TNKS.
Asir bro what an explanation, you nailed it !
Those last words i experienced myself, whenever i was drained out I'll take my Swift Diesel to a drive and revv it to the most and enjoy/discharge my feelings 👍
Totally agree sir manual thara emotional connect ah automatic sathiyama kodukkadhu
Great content by Asir bro on the uniqueness of manual cars! This is possibly his best video in terms of demonstration apart from his in-depth car reviews. My love for cars and driving went up a notch today ❤
One of the best from Motowagon team. Carefully curated and this video shows the knowledge they have in their field. At last Manual is a Manual. I love manual cars and I am a proud owner of Grand i10 which is buttery smooth in both highway and city. Good job ppl.
Absolutely agree anna.. please review Fiesta S. Manual is more connected.
Usually i won't give comments.... But for this video i have been forced to post comment. Yes this video is excellent and well explained the fact.

We could see the joy in your face 😅. I have freestyle manual and it rocks always.
Audio - Detailed info
Video - Bliss 💙🚙😍
Yes. Manual is a manual!
Please do a detailed review of your 1.6 S
A much needed content MotoWagon. I think audience will understand what you are trying to convey here if you show the gear ration difference in each gear shit.
Well demonstrated..! And that BLUE FIESTA is WOW..! 😍
Even a low powered engine car with manual gearbox will always be a fun to drive car 💪💪🔥🔥
அருமையான பதிவு.தெளிவான விளக்கம்.நன்றி.
What a video!!!! Manuals are the best. Automatics are basically scooters in cars. Fire vittravendiyathu thaan 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
appada Asir Anna 1.3 DDIS nalla engine + Manual nu solrapo ena ku appadi happy ya iruku... Yenna Swift suthama as a product ah Anna considerey pana maataru... Indha oru karanam dhan na 8 +yrs agium vandi maathama iruken😄
He not just told but also showed. Great video. And clearly explained the complex things
Super Anna i also like manual
I learn from you and I love your videos
One incident i was driving manual transmission. I stoped in toll gate counter, accidentally i press accelerator instead of brake pedal. But my left leg muscle memory press clutch pedal automatically. So vehicle doesn't move. After that i realised if im driving automatic transmission and press accelerator pedal it's very costly.
16:50 just a short drive with my car(FIAT PUNTO ❤ ) and a cup of tea, it will be a good moment for me. 💯 Agree with you 👍
Hello motowagon team, we want more videos on the ford Fiesta S. What a classy looking car
Manual & Petrol ❤
Yes manual is manual . I personally experienced a drawback and risk in automatic while overtaking
Manual lovers oru like pannunka
Detailed information as usual, good job brother 😊 my favourite is manual ✌️
Watching it for 2nd time.. Still unable to decide asir brother !! My usage will be city traffic weekends and highway usage (350 kms) each quarter !!
You expressed my thoughts about the manual transmission...❤ Through your experience and study across cars. I can command while over taking by reducing to 3rd gear from 4th in my Ritz DDIS... And both me and the car Will talk to each other through this transmission...😊
Very well explained and demonstrated bro. Great job. Who has love and passion towards cars and driving can only explain like this. Hats off.
Bro kindly check the comfort of the co passengers .Definitely all will get pleasure in automatic good gear box.
comfort of a passenger doesnt have to do anything with manual or automatic car. its the features that keep them good
Agree manuals are very soulful when the conditions are good such as lubricants, wheel alignment and steering settings. If you are using the car in big cities then we often lose wheel alignment due to potholes and speedbreakers. Also due to dust and abuse in 1st gear the mechanicals become rough. Manuals are bliss in towns, villages and winding roads. I wish I had my Punto in Travancore but wasted much of its life in Bengaluru. Ivtec are awesome but fall short on suspension and steering. So bottoming we need a few cars to satisfy different moods
"Ivtec are awesome but fall short on suspension and steering" .. would you mind briefing on this please?
Manual for enthusiasts. Automatic for comfort. Automatic sounds more practical in city and occassional highway drivings. Occasional means 200-300 kms in a strech, two or three times in a month.
13:38 needs a BGM from Anirudh!!!!!
Diesel is Diesel And Manual is Manual Diesel with Manual Its A Pure Bliss 😊🎉❤
wholesome video and yes we need more of that 1.6 eargasm
Fiesta 1.6s , what a beauty 🔥🔥👌👌
The biggest point in manual is in manual it has engine breaking, and you can easily down the gear while overtaking.
What ever said every one showing Tata build quality on accident with Maruti car but please explain Maruti or Suzuki is build with crumble zone that it will protect people than the car
தாங்கள் சொன்னது உண்மை நான்1985. (Ind)ஓட்டுனர் உரிமம்

ஆனால் Manual gear box போல
வண்டி நம்கட்டுப்பாட்டுடன் அனுபவித்து ஓட்டுவது போல்
வரவே வராது So lam too much
Like the Manual Transmission only.
Thank-you somuch 👌👍👋
Future la manual car's irukathu la bro antha tym manual car nalla resale value irukum la bro?
This video is made by a manual transmission lover. But, automatic is the best. There is a reason for 99% of USA preferring automatic. Even when you are young, save your knee health by driving an automatic car.
If we want to enjoy the car we need to buy automatic, I have driven 7 different manual cars and have covered more than 6,00,000 miles (9 L kilometre) in UK alone with manual transmission and switched to automatic cars in 2018, believe me manual cars make city driving very hectic even in UK. I am currently planning to drive car in India and obviously my first choice will be automatic just to cover the uncertainties happening across. Go for proper automatic or EV cars(Not AMT) Only then we could enjoy the car and driving in city, Happy driving
Hi Bro...Even i love Manual and i like mainly when im driving in the Hill(while climbing and also coming down - always use Gear to slow down the vechile - not to use breaks) and sometimes while overtaking other slow verhicles...can you explain more on using the Manual/Automatic car in Hill stations..which will be helpfull for others...
If you know how to drive an automatic, Automatic is the more fun to drive car ever than a manual. “aada theriatha siluku kaal la suluku naalaam”.. !!
Automatics help you have more concentration on the road by avoiding unnecessary distractions like shifting gears/engaging clutch at the right time.
Floor it ! There you go ! Paddle shifters are handy nowadays ! Manuals in 2023 is a bad choice!
Automatic aluthuna pogathu is a myth. Unaku alutha theriala is the fact !!!
It’s a learning curve, people are not willing to learn and enjoy the comfort of technology and people like you who still fuel it.
Rather saying automatic is not enthusiastic, why don’t you learn and work on it to make it enthusiastic ???
Just think, if manuals are enthusiastic. Do you think BMW/Merc/Audi are stupid to sell their cars only in automatic (except 1/2 models)?. The reason is they have worked on their automatics to be enthusiastic. Period.
Aptly put..people who have never driven an automatic are the ones who always say automatics are bad. Get a proper automatic, use manual mode if needed, drive in comfort.
Manual gearla naama solradhu vandi apdiye kekkum....aana Auto la vandi solradha naama kekkra maari irukkum. Idhan main difference....😂😂
With more women started driving cars automatic is going to increase moreover it is convenient in heavy city traffic,i fondly remember people made fun of people buying non gear scooter few decades ago and how it changed the perception, automatic is the future.
Thank you for this video. With all the different options available in the market one can get confused very easily. But nothing can change the mind of a passionate driver who loves every bit of his ride. How much ever a car is good at performance, a manual shift makes it 100x better to drive.
I love manual cars thanks MW Team for this video
Seriously ur way driving in manual vera level enjoy in ur face asir bro ❤
In Bangalore. Hassles free driving is most priority

For first time buyer, which one will be better?? Manual or AMT
Manual is always good. Choose automatic only if you drive more than 2 hour in bumper to bumper traffic. Daily driving in bumper to bumper traffic for 2 years will create knee pain(long clutch travel) and needs treatment. So choose as per your usage.
