Automated Manual
Transmission (AMT) operation
The Automated Manual Transmission
(AMT) has five forward speeds and
one reverse speed.
The individual speeds are selected
automatically in the D (Drive) posi-
tion.
Features of the Automated
Manual Transmission (AMT)
• The Automated
Transmission (AMT) can be
thought of as an automatically
shifting manual transmission. It
gives the driving feel of a manual
transmission.
• When D (Drive) is selected, the
transmission will
shift through the gears similar to a
conventional automatic transmis-
sion. Unlike a traditional automatic
transmission, the gear shifting can
sometimes be felt and heard as the
actuators engage the clutches and
the gears are selected. When the
gear is shifting, you may some-
times hear operating noise. This is
normal and does not indicate a
problem with your transmission.
• The Automated
Transmission (AMT) adopts a dry-
type single clutch, which is differ-
ent from the torque converter of
the automatic transmission. It
shows better acceleration perfor-
mance and increased fuel efficien-
cy while driving but initial launch
might be little bit slower than the
automatic transmission.
