auf MotoringFile gibt es news zum thema:
>>The MINI Cooper S with automatic transmission will be Introduced at the Detroit auto show in early January. While the One and Cooper use a CVT, the Cooper S utilizes a six speed Steptronic.
The six speed Steptronic transmission has very short shifting times, less than a quarter of a second. The transmission also uses less parts than is common with these transmissions and is therefore smaller and lighter than most.
The Cooper S with the automatic transmission reaches a top speed of 220 km/h which is 2 km/h less than the manual. The dash to 100km/h (0-62mph) takes 7.9 seconds, compared to 7.2 for the manual.
Shipping starts in January for the US and february for Europe.
As noted previously (and seen in the above photo) the transmission will feature steptronic paddles that allow manual override of gear selection. However this is strictly a typical automatic and has nothing in common to the more sporty BMW SMG or VW DSG type of transmissions.<<
speziell bei dem letz´ten satz fällt mir nur ein wort ein: SCHADE!
