- Robotized automatic gearbox: This is a manual gearbox with a robotized system that will change the driver’s action. This kind of gearbox is less and less common because they are viewed as very slow. We also often feel a coupling during deceleration.
- Dual-clutch automatic transmission: This is the best automatic transmission, it works on similar concept as the robotic transmission, but thanks to its dual clutch, you won’t have any more problems with slow speeds or increased fuel consumption. They are often fitted on luxury models.
- Continuously variable automatic box: It is similar theory as on a scooter, a variator will come to control the differences between acceleration and motor speed, they are really slow and tend to be unresponsive during the acceleration phases of your Peugeot Partner 2.
