Four benefits of SelectShift automatic transmissions
- Automatic and manual gear shifting
One of the standout advantages of a SelectShift transmission is its flexibility. Drivers can switch between automatic mode for relaxed, hassle-free driving and manual mode when they want more control over gear selection. - Clutchless technology
Unlike traditional manual transmissions, SelectShift eliminates the need for a clutch pedal. This clutchless technology offers the same level of control as a manual transmission but without the added complexity, making it ideal for both novice and experienced drivers. - Intuitive interface
SelectShift is designed with simplicity in mind. The intuitive controls allow you to shift gears effortlessly using paddle shifters or a gear selector, depending on the model. This ease of use means that drivers can enjoy the benefits of manual shifting without a steep learning curve. - Optimized handling for towing
If you frequently tow trailers, boats, or other heavy loads, SelectShift technology offers optimized handling to improve your driving experience. By allowing precise gear control, SelectShift helps maintain stability and maximize power delivery for a smoother and safer towing process.
