This company (and the founder) are just a bunch of mechanical geniuses. Other than in pure-electric, where they partnered with Rimac, they have driven so much innovation, especially with ICE: form-factors, alternatives to camshafts (free-valve), even drive-mechanisms, manufacturing techniques, wheels etc.
They're extremely humble and low-key about their inventions too, though they come out of seemingly nowhere, I don't think, for example, that anybody expected this latest innovation, because the consensus has been "manual is dead" since the new sports cars like Porsche, Ford Mustang and various others are ditching it for pure performance reasons (0-60 times).
The new manual looks amazing with its gated shifter, very Pagani Huayra-like. Their whole youtube channel (especially the invention videos, which are very humble for the sheer audacity of what they achieve) is interesting, but here's the link to the manual-automatic video.
