Joining the Duster Essential in Geneva
is the Easy-R automated transmission, launched at the end of 2015 and mated to
the TCe 90 gasoline stop/start engine, which can be now specified for the dCi
90 diesel versions of the Logan, Logan MCV, Sandero and Sandero Stepway,
depending on the market, for the same price.
The Easy-R gearbox has six forward gears
and it is "calibrated to optimize everyday driving enjoyment, especially
in congested traffic and urban areas", as the company states. Fuel
consumption on vehicles equipped with the automatic is said to be comparable
with that of a manual.
