Many car manufacturers are favouring automatic gearboxes nowadays, while electric cars don't have a gearbox at all

With the upcoming ban on petrol and diesel cars in 2035, and more manufacturers choosing to only sell automatic cars, the automotive industry is changing rapidly. With a growing number of drivers now taking their tests in automatic cars, experts at Macklin Motors said they had spotted searches for ‘automatic driving tests’ are up by 22% in the last three months alone.

A spokesperson said: “When learning how to drive, there's a lot of decisions to make, one of them being the type of car you want to learn in. And it's important to make the right decision for you. “The key difference between a manual and an automatic car is how much work you will need to do as the driver. In a manual car, there are three pedals – accelerator, brake, and clutch, using the gears to increase or decrease your speed.

“In an automatic car, there are only two pedals – an accelerator and a brake, with the automatic gearbox doing the hard work for you. So, with automatic cars seemingly doing all the hard work, it’s important to understand the pros but also the cons of learning in an automatic before you make the decision.”Being able to stop/start the car without the added stress of using the clutch can be beneficial to new drivers.
