It did occasionally shift down to fifth while in cruise control on a particularly steep or long climb, but its an almost undetectable shift (very some, no jerk, etc). I have not experienced it jumping from 6th to 4th directly, although it may if you really stick your foot in it, I have not tried that. Anytime I was being that aggressive, I manually shifted using the paddles.
Bottom line is 6th gear is definitely a "cruising gear". I've posted photos of at speed in 6th car and its barely breaking 2K RPM. Either you or your computer will down shift if you want to gain speed. |
Yes, I would agree very much so. If you want MT 6th gear performance, just use AT 5th! Its almost the same!
