Can paddle shift car like New Honda City 1.5 drive like proton wira 1.5 manual car ?

Say,in traffic jam we used wira first gear to move the car from static .Let the car move a bit

then change to second gear.

How about the car like city with paddle shift ?

Used the way drive like mentioned above with paddle shift.....

Big advantage is without press the left clutch in honda city and comfort drive all the way.

Will this save fuel like wira 1.5 manual car during heavy traffic jam ?

Since i never drive paddle shift car before,please share ur experience.

Thanks in advance. smile.gif

In fact i don't care about fast pickup,

I think the advantage of paddle shift is without the use of

manually press the clutch......

I'm getting sick and tiring of pressing the wira clutch.

I may buy honda city in future.

I think first gear in D mode will rev to higher before change to second gear.

This is the disadvantage of auto car, too much fuel wasted.

But with the paddle shift feature,we can act like change the gear manually like manual car.

Any car owner with paddle shift,please share ur experience.

Seems like i put too much hope on honda city .

Auto gearbox means auto gearbox ...paddle shift wouldn't help much.

I think i shud look for the real manual gearbox with paddle shift like DSG.....

Too bad they are selling sky high price. sad.gif

I think the cheapest DSG u able to get is the Polo..  correct me if I am wrong... 

U don't even need to shift..   let it run automatically..  it is faster than manual....   thumbup.gif

I have watch super sport cars like Ferrari F430 Scuderia and Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 on Youtube.

The way they change the gear so cool.......

Just use the paddle shift.Of course without the left clutch pedal with nowadays technology.

Hopefully the japanese car manufacturer can come out with this manual gearbox technology.

But i guess this is not cheap.....
