IIRC you can still pop start manual transmission gasoline engine cars*. I don't think any maker is going to offer a crank in the USA these days 1.) the cars of the early part of the last century that did have cranks tended to break arms 2.) most members of my generation have lousy upper body strength (I've seen some so scrawny that they make me wonder how they cope with daily tasks).
*If the alternator is putting out enough voltage for spark to work then the computer is going to work too.
