Cough. You don't change gear on a pure electric car, because it
doesn't have any. All hybrids are automatic too (AFAIK).

Yes, in my statement I was excluding (without saying so explicitly) any car
that doesn't *have* a clutch pedal, either because the gearchanges are
automatic or because there's only one fixed ratio between motor and wheels
(which may be 1:1 if the motors are directly connected to the wheels).

Do any electric cars have separate motors for the two driven wheels, or is
there always a single motor and a differential?
