Automatic cars typically have more gears than a manual. Automatics also have the ability to determine how much power is needed at any given time so you will always be using the engine to its optimum performance.
Automatic cars don't have typical gears or a clutch that you' d find in a manual car so they're much easier to drive. This also means that they're less stressful and decrease risk of any pains to your left leg that would normally be used constantly on the clutch when finding biting points, slowing down and changing gears! Automatics never stall and there is less of a chance rolling backwards on a hill.
As there's no clutch this may also mean there is less servicing required on Automatic cars whereas in a manual car, driver bad habits may lead to overuse of the clutch such as coasting or harder use.
Automatics are also much more comfortable to drive when in the city or caught up in traffic. The motorway driving is also improved as it feels more smoother and quieter which may lead to better fuel economy
In some countries Automatic cars are the default transmission which makes them more accessible. In addition Automatic cars can be driven by anyone; whether you have an auto license or manual one.
