Gearbox
The gearbox is part of the car's powertrain
(power transmission) between engine and drive
wheels. The function of the gearbox is to change
the gear ratio depending on speed and power
requirements.
The car has an eight-speed automatic gearbox,
and an electric motor for rear-wheel drive. The
number of gear changes means that the engine's
torque and power range can be used effectively.
Two of the gears are overdrive gears that save
fuel when driving at constant engine speed.
Using the steering wheel paddles
*
it is possible
to shift up or down manually. The driver display
shows which gear position is currently in use.
To prevent damage to any drive system com-
ponents, the working temperature of the
gearbox is checked. If there is a risk of over-
heating, a warning symbol illuminates in the
driver display and a text message is shown -
follow the recommendation given.
Symbols in the driver display
