Honda's Super One Prototype is a widened, sporty electric kei-derived hot hatch that simulates combustion sound and a seven-speed transmission.
Last year, Porsche said that adding fake shifting to EVs made the cars "worse." It secretly toyed around with the idea and now has a prototype where engineers "could not tell the difference." The automaker is now considering adding it to their next-gen EVs. Remember last year when Porsche guffawed boisterously at Hyundai for adding fake shifting to its Ioniq 5 N? That was exactly one year ago.
