Rather like the chassis tweaks it's difficult to identify the ST200's shorter gear ratios in terms of straight - line acceleration — you'd need to drive it back - to - back with an ST — and there are actually occasions where the shorter gearing forces you to shift up between corners rather than being able to hold the lower gear.

With seven performance - oriented gears, where even seventh gear has a sports ratio and is engineered for maximum speed.

A gear ratio is the relationship between one gear and another — such as one gear up where the bicycle pedals are, and the other gear back near the rear wheel, connected by the chain.

... where Tw is wheel torque, Te is engine torque, N is the gear ratio, η is the efficiency, and the subscripts t and f are for the gearbox and differential, respectively.

Where the six - speed bounced back and forth between gears downhill and was hesitant to downshift when climbing, Ford's 10 - speed just settled into a gear — with so many to choose from, it could choose a more accurate ratio — and pulled smoothly and strongly.

This is a turn of phrase, it actually refers to CVTs that are able to include a «zero ratio», where the input shaft can turn without any motion of the output shaft while remaining in gear.

In spite of the joys of low - rpm electric torque, the realities of a curb weight well above 4000 pounds and only one gear ratio mean that mileage is where this car excels.

Regardless of where they are used, these simple transmissions all share an important feature: the gear ratio can not be changed during use.

Using variable ratios for the gearing can keep the motor running in its most efficient rpm range, i.e., where the motor draws the least current for the applied load.

Gears change from second - to ninth - gear ratios with precise clutch - to - clutch shifting, where the clutch is engaged in one gear at exactly the same time it is released from another.

This system should not be confused with variable assist power steering, which varies steering assist torque, not steering ratios, nor with systems where the gear ratio is only varied as a function of steering angle.

The dynamic steering on the front axle incorporates what is known as strain wave gearing where the ratio changes as a function of speed.

Some transmission units also have Winter mode, where higher gear ratios are chosen to keep revs as low as possible while on slippery surfaces.

An automatic transmission, also called auto, self - shifting transmission, n - speed automatic (where n is its number of forward gear ratios), or AT, is a type of motor vehicle transmission that can automatically change gear ratios as the vehicle moves, freeing the driver from having to shift gears manually.
