The actuators are coupled to the shaft. The controller is configured to determine a selected shifter operating mode from among shifter operating modes; generate, in response to the selected shifter operating mode being a first shifter operating mode, a first set of output signals to the actuators to control the actuators to permit movement of the shifter handle in a first predetermined virtual pathway; generate, in response to the selected shifter operating mode being a second shifter operating mode, a second set of output signals to the actuators to control the actuators to permit movement of the shifter handle in a second predetermined virtual pathway; and switch the electric vehicle between the vehicle operating states based on movement of the shaft.",
