This^. No gears, one speed, the L is just for more aggressive regen. It is where both drivers in our family always put the shift lever. And I always use Sport mode for quicker accelerator tip-in. On the wide open interstate I may use D just so any foot movement on the accelerator pedal isn't very perceptible to my passengers.
