An automatic gearbox contains special devices that automatically provide various gear ratios, as they are needed. Most automatic gearboxes have several forward gears and one reverse gear. Instead of a gearstick, the driver moves a lever called a selector. This course will introduce automatic transmission systems and will cover torque converters, electronic and hydraulic control, constantly variable transmission, transaxle transmission, and direct shift gearboxes.
