All the manual transmission cars you can still buy in the US

Manual transmission car will remain a must-have

US President Joe Biden has refused to support the combustion car phase-out plan. Supporting the plan to phase out these types of vehicles would cause a cataclysm in the automotive sector, leaving thousands of workers unemployed.

The MEMA (Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association of the United States), represents thousands worldwide companies that belong to the automotive sector protesting before the requests of such legislation.

Ann Wilson, MEMA’s vice president of government affairs, says that if they move too quickly into a fully electrified fleet, 30% of America’s auto suppliers would lose their jobs – about 560,000 people.

Wilson also assured that gasoline vehicles will remain on our roads for at least 20 more years. Combustion car suppliers refused to end sales of these types of vehicles by 2035.
