Ford is planning to increase fuel economy by increasing its of 6-speed automatic transmissions. Weren't they recently complaining about higher CAFE standards being unfair? Funny what $3.50 + per gallon has on industry.
While 6-speed automatic transmissions are significantly more fuel efficient than four- and five-speed automatic transmissions, switching to CVT transmissions can save even more fuel. That's exactly what Nissan did -- the majority of their non-manual transmissions are currently CVT.
