Does the 4th-generation Emgrand have a manual transmission?

[ODonovan]

Currently, no. Manual transmissions offer slightly better fuel economy than automatic models and have lower maintenance costs. When choosing between manual and automatic, consider: 1. Road conditions: If you frequently drive in urban areas, automatic is preferable; for suburban driving, either is fine. 2. Driving habits: Choose manual if you enjoy the control experience of shifting gears for acceleration. Opt for automatic if you prioritize comfort. 3. Budget: If your budget allows, automatic offers more comfort. There's typically a price difference between manual and automatic models. 4. Long-term costs: Automatic models generally have slightly higher operating costs, especially for Geely models where fuel consumption differs significantly between manual and automatic versions due to transmission technology or engine matching. Automatic transmissions also incur higher maintenance costs. 5. Model: For Geely's entry-level models, manual is recommended due to transmission technology limitations, as the automatic driving experience may not be as good as manual.
