Single cone
carbon synchronizers are used on 5th and 6th gears for increased friction capability and reduced shift effort.
Both engines are mated to standard six - speed manual transmissions that feature new
carbon synchronizer rings for smoother shift action and enhanced synchronizer durability.
Not exact matches
As a means of increasing shift comfort, the manual gearbox uses innovative new
carbon friction linings in its
synchronizer rings.
Among its features is dry sump lubrication, a double - plate clutch to handle the added torque loading,
carbon - ceramic friction linings within the
synchronizer rings and a blip function for downshifts.
Additionally, the gear
synchronizers utilize
carbon - fiber cones, which also contribute to the ability to shift so fast.
It is based on the CLA's optional dual clutch unit but gets reinforced gear cogs and
synchronizer rings with
carbon fiber friction rings for added durability.
