Optimum Shift Control

  1. The shift patterns found satisfying by the typical driver for all ranges of driving are stored in the computer's memory. The computer uses this data to analyze road conditions and the driver's style of operation, and then outputs the optimal shift patterns stored in its memory to best match the conditions.

  2. We introduce the latest in control technologies with an innovative new algorithm called the "neutral network" that works to imitate the decision-making processes of the human brain. The neural network links a wide variety of input data regarding road and operating conditions, and instantly makes accurate shift control decisions.
