PowerShift Automatic Transmission*
®
The 6-speed, dual-clutch automatic
transmission is designed to offer
drivers both enhanced fuel efficiency
and fun-to-drive performance.
OFF
The dual-clutch technology uses
electronically shifted clutches to operate
two separate transmissions, all in a
small, lightweight package.
Since the clutch and gear operation is
derived from a manual transmission, the
PowerShift automatic transmission will drive, sound, and feel
similar to manual transmission, minus the required user-inputs.
For example, the transmission may exhibit mechanical noises,
firm gear shifts and/or light clutch vibrations when accelerating
slowly as the clutches automatically engage. These are all
considered to be normal and expected driving characteristics.
See the
Transmission
chapter of your
for details.
SelectShift Automatic Transmission*
This transmission gives you the ability to
manually change gears if you'd like.
To Use
• Move the gearshift lever from drive (D)
to sport (S).
• Activate SelectShift by using the thumb
toggle located on the side of your
gearshift lever to make manual shifts.
• Press the (+) button to upshift. Press
the (–) button to downshift.
Hill Start Assist*
The system makes it easier to pull away when you park your
vehicle on a slope without using the parking brake. When active,
this feature allows your vehicle to remain stationary on a slope
for up to two to three seconds after you release the brake
Owner's Manual
pedal. This short period gives you time to move your foot to the
accelerator and pull away. This feature activates automatically
if the sensors detect that the vehicle is on a slope.
