you've actually said nothing here other than reiterating the knowledge you have that Auto are faster which is wrong. you kept beating around the bush saying improved clutch and so on... this is the thing. lets compare a manually transmitted Peugeot 307 or Honda EOD with their Automatic type. this cars have same weight, same engine capacity.. the guy even say aerodynamics ... na for F35 B lightening and Sukoi 57 i remembered seeing that. i no know say cars to get aerodynamics... its important sha. the thing is manual may have a faster starting than the automatic because the gear is fully embedded to the engine power unlike the auto which have to keep following some rule before changing to the next gear. whil manual is gone, auto might still be thinking whether it's time to change or a little more torque 3 Likes 2 Shares |

wman: The only reason they choose manual gears is because of drifting around the corners because the driver can easily control it which is not the case with automatic transmission. |

kekakuz: You nailed it! Autos have to get to a certain rev to switch gears. On a manual, I can upshift or down shift before getting to those revs. There's a reason F1 vehicles have manual tranny over auto |

When driving uphill with load a manual transmission is more faster than auto transmission |

Automatic is more faster and you can even determine the gear changing in auto.... Is just the driver that matters |

Temidayo9:yes manual are faster than auto transmission.... I have tried and tested it... If u are a very good driver no auto transmission car can beat u... Cuz u shift ur sticks earlier than an auto car... U can shift from 3 -4 2-4 all na depends on driver experience 1 Like |

lordm:are you sure the type of manual gear you drove,rally cars,race cars drift cars,and even formula one cars use manual gears,you cannot race in an automatic gearbox,you don't have control of the engine power but manual gear gives you the control to use the whole engine power to shred a tyre to pieces of needed |

Re: Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by zelaws: 6:35pm On Oct 04, 2023 |
Can shift between gear 1 to 4 within 3 poles with manual, not sure its possible with automatic within the same distance. Manual gives the control to switch your speed promptly while automatic gives the glide. |
Re: Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by Ab0bii: 6:36pm On Oct 04, 2023 |
From my experience with both, i had said MANUAL IS FASTER because the driver will be communicting with the engine directly. Take for instance that two(manual and auto) are racing, when climbing a hill, manual will outshine auto due to how how the driver will engage the most strong and fast gear to climb, will manual will be busy engaging different gears that may slow down the car. Similarly, one can select from gear 2 to 4 on manual when coming down on a hill instantly to beat auto that can not free up the engine at once. |

Re: Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by casualobserver: 6:40pm On Oct 04, 2023 |
ibinaboonline: The top speed and acceleration of any car is determined by it’s final axle drive ratio and very little to do with automatic or manual these days. The days when automatics were slower than manuals are long gone. If you change the differential axle ratio a car will accelerate faster but will have a lower top speed and vice versa irrespective of whether it is a manual or an automatic.

Re: Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by Incognito9: 6:41pm On Oct 04, 2023 |
airsaylongcome: Automatic transmission is often viewed as a driver aid, but in Formula 1, the emphasis is on the driver's skills. That's why manual transmission is preferred, allowing the driver to have complete control over every aspect of the race. Additionally, when it comes to drifting around corners, using manual transmission is generally considered easier compared to automatic transmission. |

ibinaboonline:.. I think it depends on the number of cylinder of the engine. A 6 cylinder engine would be faster than a 4 cylinder irrespective of whether they break is manually or automatically driven I also think that automatical gear would accelerate faster than manual gear 1 Like |
Re: Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by adanny01(m): 6:43pm On Oct 04, 2023 |
profmallor: Good point. Automatic knows what gear. when to shift and changes the gear in microseconds depending also on different modes of driving. This is achieved by a computer that has several sensors. All that skill cannot be easily done by a human. It's a skill only for the best. Even for the best, the computer changes the gear faster leading to the semi automatic transmission in F1. A lot of newer cars don't have manual options because the average driver thinks he knows how to drive a manual but will burn the clutch in no time. 1 Like |
