My issue with automatics is that there's a lack of control. It's trying to be smart about changing gears and yet never ends up doing what I want. It's like the throttle is going over a bad internet connection.

Because there are no gears to switch I don't have that issue in electric cars, it even feels better than a manual: Smooth torque curve and instant throttle response.
