How Sequential Sportshift works
Sequential Sportshift works with an automatic transmission equipped with a hydraulic torque converter and electronic control. Special firmware sets the transmission in automatic mode in different ways. In addition, the electronic module controls the mechanism and locks the gear selected by the driver.
To switch to manual mode, the driver moves the shift lever to the appropriate position and shifts to the desired gear by moving it to the “+” or “-” position. The position of the manual function of the shift lever is marked with “M”. Shift paddles are also used to operate the manual shift.
