Subject: Re: Why cant SAAB come up with an AutoStick version?


In article <7su38h$fbk$15nopsam3.Belgium.EU.net>, Johan Lauwers <lauwers.sablonnopsam.be> writes >Saab had it on their sensonic. > I don't think you can really compare Sensonic with AutoStick, or Tiptronic. Sensonic was just an updated version of the sort of clutchless manual gearboxes which have been tried on and off since the 1950s, usually with as little success as Sensonic enjoyed. AutoStick, or whatever, are conventional automatic transmissions with slightly more sophisticated manual override control systems. Sensonic et al offer no fully automatic option for the driver. >Taken out of production because not enough intrest. > Also because it was bloody awful to drive, particularly when trying to manoeuvre on an incline. -- Regards Leroy Curtis Please replace "nospam" with "baram" in my address if you wish to reply by Email
