9-Speed Automatic Transmission
For Vehicles with a Transverse Engine
Under high pressure - ZF is working on the development of new fuel-efficient transmission generations. The latest innovation: an entirely new automatic passenger car transmission, developed with 9 gears for vehicles with a transverse engine.
Economy with increased performance – ZF once again shows the automotive world that these two attributes aren’t mutually exclusive: ZF is the world’s first transmission manufacturer to have developed a modern automatic passenger car transmission with nine gears. It is intended for vehicles with a transversely mounted front engine and thus fits into 80 percent of all cars manufactured worldwide. The transmission does not replace the current longitudinally mounted 8-speed automatic transmission but rather is designed for the installation conditions of transverse to the direction of travel.
