So, unfortunately, I think it will be pretty much non-existent except for very niche cars as for every manual car, you'll need to sell so many "more efficient" cars to get your fleet average down to the compliance standards.

there are good manual cars already out there. buy one of those. we have to let go of thinking new cars are going to be like old ones. they are becoming closer and closer to being an typical appliance every day. so the point where we wont even own them anymore, we will just rent them or subscribe to them.
