The long ratios in the upper
gears reduce fuel consumption.
All transmissions are distinguished by convenient and precise operation, high efficiency and a wide spread of gear ratios — the long ratios in the higher
gears reduces fuel consumption, while the short ratios in the lower gears benefit the dynamics.

The dramatic enhancement of both power and torque low down the rev range on the new engines have made it possible to actuate the transmission's lock - up clutch much earlier in each
gear,
reducing slip through the hydraulic torque converter, so helping with the improvements in both
fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
New control logic and expanded
gear ratio coverage help
reduce noise and
fuel consumption while improving drivability and responsiveness.
Mid-range punch has been improved too, with 80 - 120 km / h in fifth
gear now done in 8.3 seconds (0.2 seconds quicker than before) while combined
fuel consumption is
reduced to 6.0 litres per 100 km.
Other range - wide additions include active traction control, hill - start assist, brake assist, electronic brake - force distribution, front seatbelt pretensioners, passenger seatbelt reminder, cruise control, auto - locking front hubs, a new fuse box and revised

Revised
gearing from September 2011
reduced fuel consumption and emissions, while a more efficient 1.5 dCi unit arrived in July 2013 with stop / start.
The ratio spread from first to the fifth
gear was selected to minimize
fuel consumption and
reduce powertrain noise during cruising.

Both automatic transmissions in the new A4 series feature a wide spread of
gears: Their lower
gears have sporty low ratios and high ratios for the upper
gears to
reduce engine speed and
fuel consumption.
One of the new features is the
fuel consumption and gearshift indicator (if the six - speed transmission is specified), which informs the driver of the current
fuel consumption and at what point the next - highest
gear should be selected in order to save
fuel and
reduce CO2 emissions (also see page 89).
While the lower
gears of the tiptronic are closely spaced for sporty response, eighth
gear is tall to
reduce fuel consumption.
It includes taller
gearing to take advantage of the new engines» greater torque output and an updated lock - up system to further
reduce fuel consumption.
With nine forward
gears the 9G ‑ TRONIC manages to
reduce fuel consumption, while further enhancing shift comfort and agility.
Its great strength lies in the high overall
gear ratio of 7.0:1 between the shortest and longest
gear ratio,
reducing the
fuel consumption by about six percent.
Other features such as the Auto Start Stop function, Brake Energy Regeneration, the
gear shift indicator, on - demand operation of ancillary units and the innovative Proactive Driving Assistant all do their part to ensure low
fuel consumption and
reduced emissions, without compromising driving performance.
The Efficiency program, in turn, shifts up
gears at an early point in time not only to significantly
reduce fuel consumption under practical driving conditions, but also to allow a relaxed style of motoring using the supreme torque and pulling force of the engine available from low engine speeds.
