Super TestCar reviews - Holden - Barina - 5-dr hatchHolden modelsTransmission26 Nov 2001 BARINA offers a five-speed manual as standard and a four-speed automatic as an option. The manual is now supported by a hydraulically operated clutch. Holden claims an external shift gate provides additional refinement, de-coupling the gearshift linkage from the driveline, reducing transmission noise and making for more precise gear selection. The automatic is electronically controlled and has a neutral idle feature that selects neutral when the car is stationary and the brake pedal is applied. The system, which automatically shifts back into gear when the brake pedal is released, is designed to provide smoother and quieter idling and improved fuel economy.

Other components, including air cleaner elements, have had their service intervals extended to save on operating costsAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
