Performance Algorithm Shifting
Performance Algorithm Shifting (PAS) is a transmission algorithm that determines whether a vehicle is being driven in a competitive manner by looking at lateral acceleration, throttle, and vehicle deceleration activity. If the algorithm recognizes these conditions, it can force downshifts and hold lower gears for optimized vehicle performance. PAS automatically chooses the optimal gear for a given driving condition.
How it works
PAS recognizes a driver’s particular style of throttle and brake application and essentially “reads his or her mind” and predicts which gear will be most advantageous for performance driving or economical cruising.
