So what’s an “automated manual” then? I’m only asking as it was mentioned in a post above…
Just curious…
Citroen fit one in some versions of the C4 Picasso/Grand Picasso. Basically a normal manual ‘box but with a ‘box of electronics’ that does all the gearshifting & clutch actuating for you.
Painful to drive at first, but once you realise that rather than driving it like a normal (torque converter type) auto i.e. just keep your foot on the accelerator & away you go, you learn to anticipate the gear changes & then briefly lift off as the ‘box changes gear (like what you’d do when driving a manual, lift off as you dip the clutch). Makes for smoother changes.
