Original Abstract Submitted
A shifter assembly for an electric vehicle includes a base, a shifter handle, and a plurality of actuators. The base defines an opening. The shifter handle extends through the opening of the base and is pivotably coupled to the base. Each actuator of the plurality of actuators are pivotably coupled to the base at a first end and pivotably coupled to the shifter handle at a second end that is opposite the first end. The plurality of actuators are configured to permit movement of the shifter handle relative to the base in a predetermined virtual pathway and inhibit movement of the shifter handle relative to the base outside the predetermined virtual path.
