My fiat is the same…they really made the transition from ICE to EV extremely minimal, everything feels/act the same.
The thing that gets me is without gears shifting as you accelerate you don’t instinctively know how fast you’re actually going…I feel like if you’ve been driving long enough your brain already has some map built in… like the back of your brain is keeping track and the car shifted 3 times so you’re probably going around x speed. I pull away from a light and can’t help punching it a little bit but by the time I let off and look down I’m going 58 in a 35!
I don’t want to sound like one of those super EV fan boys and I’ve only had mine for 3ish months…but once you drive an EV for a while you start to wonder why haven’t cars always been like this? It makes so much more sense this way! I learned to drive on a manual and always got my cars with manuals so I do miss the engagement/connection to the driving experience but honestly EV is sooo much better (except down shifting into a turn)
