Personally I love driving because it's fun to operate the clutch/stick/accelerator in an attempt to squeeze both good performance and good efficiency from the car. When it comes to EV/hybrids, hopefully there's still some user-level optimization available...otherwise driving will become very boring and unrewarding (for me).

And yes, this means I kind of dread the advent of self-driving cars.
