As of 2023, the percentage of cars sold in Europe with manual transmissions has significantly decreased. Historically, over 80% of cars sold in Europe were manual, but recent data suggests that this percentage has dropped to around 32% in the first half of 2023. https://www.team-bhp.com/news/manual-transmissions-losing-popularity-globally-says-study https://www.carwow.co.uk/news/6414/automatic-gearboxes-become-the-norm

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1734238484431306836
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
