The sequential self-shifter allows drivers to downchange by pushing the gearlever to the left and to upchange by pushing right. Unlike other semi-automatic transmissions, it won't upshift on its own - even at redline - but it does have the ability to downchange automatically, even in 'manual' mode. The auto is an adaptive type which independently changes the shift characteristics on the basis of comparison of feedback from a variety of sensors. Did you know?Compared to the previous five-speed manual transmission, Mercedes-Benz claims shift forces are reduced by up to 25 per cent in the new six-speedAll 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 |
