[Ads-l] Obsolete term: "gas pedal" in an electric car =?UTF-8?Q?=E2=80=93_?=alternatives "potentiometer" or "accelerator"

A participant in a YouTube video discussion about the engineering of
electric cars started to say the phrase "when I step on the gas
pedal", but he stopped before saying "gas pedal". After a delay he
suggested "potentiometer" (I think), and another participant suggested
"accelerator".
