คำอธิบายข้อแตกต่างระหว่าง Auto Trans (205) and Sport Auto Trans (2TB) จาก web site ของ BMW ZA ครับ
Minimise resistance. Maximise efficiency.
The 8-speed automatic transmission and the 8-speed Sport automatic transmission enable much swifter gear shifts thanks to finely graduated gear ratios and short rev intervals. This ensures a combination of top-class comfort, lively dynamics and lower fuel consumption.
The 8-speed automatic transmission guarantees not only smoother gear changes and lower noise levels at high speeds it also significantly reduces fuel consumption. The individual gears are more finely graduated and the transmission process is almost imperceptible. At the same time, the engine remains at the performance level that allows it to make optimum use of its power and efficiency. At high speeds, the additional gears reduce the revs, which lead to a reduction in both fuel consumption and engine noise.
The 8-speed Sport automatic transmission adapts to your individual way of driving, ranging from relaxed coasting to an extremely dynamic motoring style. In addition to the automatic gear changes, you can switch to manual transmission at any time, where you shift gears using a shortened gear change lever or via two paddle switches on the Sport steering wheel. In the Sport mode, gear shifts are designed for high performance and optimised acceleration. With the 8-speed Sport automatic transmission, you achieve the best-possible efficiency and, at the same time, enjoy unbeatable gear shifts.
