- The Model 85 is an integral overdriven unit with a lockup clutch torque converter. Of rear drive configuration, the transmission targets 2.0 to 5.0 litre passenger cars and light trucks. The conventional mechanical arrangement is driven via a microprocessor-based control system which utilizes throttle position, engine speed, transmission output speed, transmission sump temperature, gear selector position, and performance/economy selector inputs to control all shift feel and shift schedule aspects. This control approach results in improved transmission performance with reduced package size (dry weight of 70 kg).
