Why do you keep saying it can’t be disabled?

I never said that. I said I don't know that it can be disabled. And once again saying that it's a worrying trend.

Why do you keep ignoring the bit about the added costs and stupid pointless hardware?

Regarding Nissan (which shouldn’t matter, we are talking about Hyundai and Porsche),

My guy, do you not understand how examples work? We're not talking about Nissan, we're talking about large swathes of the automotive industry. Nissan, Honda, Subaru, Mazda, etc. etc. all have these shitty CVTs with fake shifting.

a quick google search shows that they are an optional feature

Your Google search deceives you.

Do you have a source for Nissan forcing the use of paddle shifters?

That was not about paddle shifters, that was about the transmission...

If you think that’s dumb, then fine.

Then why are you arguing with me?
