There
are many benefits of automatic transmission that are contributing to this
growing preference for Automatic cars. These include: -
1.
Driving comfort
One of the best advantages of driving an automatic car is the
convenience it offers. Thanks to the clutch-pedal-less operation and the
fact that you don’t have to shift gears manually. Driving a car with automatic
transmission affords a lot of comfort to the driver, whether it is short city
commutes or outstation trips.
2. Good
Fuel Economy
Fuel consumption has always been a major point of concern for
people opting for an automatic car. But with multiple technology choices in the
form of AGS (Auto Gear Shift), AT (Automatic Transmission) and CVT
(Continuously Variable Transmission) by Maruti Suzuki, this is no longer a
worry. Each of these automatic transmissions has been tuned for Indian driving
conditions and are optimized to deliver the ideal balance of performance and
fuel-efficiency.

Engineered for Versatility and Great Performance
Let’s start with Auto Gear Shift. In AGS cars by Maruti Suzuki,
you get the flexibility of switching between Automatic and Manual modes.
Additionally, AGS comes equipped with Creep and Kick Down functions. The Creep
function enables you to drive the car at low speeds in traffic simply by
releasing the brake pedal. Then there’s the Kick Down function which comes into
play to provide instantaneous power and torque for better acceleration (based
on acceleration inputs).
In AT, the automatic transmission is quite responsive to driving
inputs; it has sufficient power on tap to deliver quick acceleration and solid
driving performance. There’s a Hill Hold function as well that prevents the car
from rolling backwards when driving on inclines.
As for CVT, the engine operates in the highest possible
efficiency band to deliver smooth and linear performance. At the same time,
there’s also an L mode which comes in handy when driving on inclines, whether
it is hills, basement parking lots or flyovers.
