The early automatics were a nightmare though. It took like almost a full second for them to react to pushing the acceleration pedal.

And when you are waiting for an opportune moment to merge onto a highway lane, a second could mean the difference between life and death.

So glad this isn't the case with any EVs though. It is just push and go.
