Eight speed tranny
The revs really stay low with it. Noticed today that doing 130 km/hr on DVP was only 2100 rpm.
 No problem in keeping below 4k rpm duriing break in.

Another thing I found out is that if you stop driving and hit the Stop button whilst still in D=Drive, the car automatically goes into P=Park.

http://www.zf.com/corporate/en/produ...nsmission.html They claim that it mis 11% more efficient than the previous six-speed version, which was itself quite an improvement. I have not yet found a direct comparison, but the gear ranges do go well lower than the previous one, so highway efficiency should improve. |
