Transmission AMG-enhanced 7-speed automatic with AMG SPEEDSHIFT™. Electronically controlled shifting. Driver-adaptive programming adjusts shift points to the driver's current driving style. Touch Shift allows driver to manually downshift and allow upshifts by nudging the shift lever left or right from the Drive position. Shift into Optimum Gear programming allows one-touch selection of the best gear for maximum acceleration or engine braking by holding the shift lever to the left of Drive for one second. Driver-selectable Comfort mode starts vehicle moving in 2nd gear or a second Reverse gear, and upshifts at lower rpm to help improve control on slippery surfaces.
AMG SPEEEDSHIFT AMG SPEEDSHIFT programming provides up to 50 percent faster gear changes, automatically downshifts during braking, prevents unwanted upshifting while cornering, and features torque converter lockup in all forward gears. Manual mode allows direct-access shifting through forward gears via paddles on the back of the upper steering-wheel spokes (left paddle downshifts, right paddle upshifts) or via Touch Shift feature of shift lever, and will automatically intervene only to select 1st gear when the vehicle stops. In Standard and Comfort modes, the steering-wheel paddles operate the Touch Shift feature.
