It's a manual 1-speed. 
It's a clutchless manual one speed with no Reverse gear.

I call it manual, as you have to manual turn it on!

It's actually the opposite of a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). It's an NVT (Non-Variable Transmission).
Another good one is "how many cylinders?". Um, I guess the part of the motor that spins is cylindrical, so one?

So why isn't it an automatic? There's nothing to maneuver.

If there is nothing to shift, can you say that the car shifts automatically by itself? :ugeek:

Nothing to maneuver because there's no "transmission" in the common meaning of the word, so neither "automatic transmission", nor "manual transmission" apply. Just say it has a single-speed reduction gearbox and watch their eyes glaze over. :lol:
