Luxury cars come in different versions, including manual and automatic transmissions. Driving a vehicle with one or the other transmission is a matter of personal taste and various parameters that must be considered.
The percentage of cars in Israel that have manual transmissions, including luxury rental cars, is very low. In contrast, in Europe, most cars, as well as luxury cars, have manual transmissions. Israel is very similar to the US, in its negative attitude towards manual transmission cars and its preference for driving vehicles with automatic transmissions.
When renting luxury cars , it is recommended to understand and know the essential differences between luxurious and prestigious cars with manual transmissions and cars with automatic transmissions, such as:
- A car with a standard transmission is usually faster and has greater acceleration;
- A driver in a car with a manual transmission will be more alert and refreshed than a driver in a car with an automatic transmission, since he must change gears manually in combination with pressing the clutch, which requires a lot of focus;
- A car with a manual transmission is more fuel efficient;
- A car with a manual transmission is usually cheaper to rent, buy, and maintain;
- A car with an automatic transmission is friendlier and more comfortable in traffic jams, there is no need to change gears and have your foot on the clutch and/or brakes at any given moment;
