Our students at Smiles Driving Academy often ask us which is easier: automatic or manual transmission cars. Let’s break it down!

Automatic Transmission: Can be easier to learn and drive, especially in traffic, and offers a smoother driving experience overall. But they can be typically more expensive to buy and maintain and you have less control over the vehicle’s performance.

Manual Transmission: Offer better control and handling, and is generally more fuel-efficient, but there can be a steeper learning curve involved, and more effort is required generally, especially in stop-and-go traffic.
