With the extra cogs on board, the new gearbox improves mileage rates by 6% over the second generation six-speed transmission popular with numerous makes including the likes of BMW and Aston Martin. Compared to a five-speed transmission, which is still widely used today, the consumption reduction amounts to almost 14%. ovidiu0901 Thu, 03 May 2007 23:36:21 GMT
