90% of southern Europe?
Why just southern Europe? Here in West Europe there is still a vast majority of manual transmission.
Some models it’s much higher, but overall definitely single digits in the U.S.

Europe has a much higher take rate on manuals.

>>90% in Germany

I'm not hard core enough to have a pre-computer vehicle, though.
