Cars Q&A

Most definitely cars with automatic transmission give lesser fuel mileage. Just go to Yahoo! cars and check out the mileage figures for manual and auto cars of the same brand and model. It is not so much that the transmissions themselves are less efficient, but because you cannot drive at engine revolutions of your preference.

Dear Sir

Yes - A/T equipped vehicles prove to be higher fuel consumption vehicles than M/T equipped. Reason : Losses occuring inside transmission unit where more components like torque converter, drive & driven plates, etc which all function on Oil pressure. And also Max. speed A/T vehicles are lower to that of M/T.
