I'm in a BYD, and I actually feel better connected due to the regenerative braking
I'm normally on a motorbike, so I use my gears to control speed almost entirely
With a manual car, I can actually drive it properly, but most of the vehicles I have to drive are automatics, which I have always disliked
With my little car, I feel much more "part of" it. It's very responsive and I'm able to do so much without touching the brakes
I pretty much ignore the "tech" apart from occasionally telling it to change the temperature or do something with a window
Window, do a barrel roll
That's be pretty sweet!
They go up and down, but I'm hoping that with some patience and treats, I can train it to do more
Use positive reinforcement and they'll do whatever you want. Whatever. You. Want.
