putting in neutral when stationery

[nny911]

see, alot of new, euro luxury cars actually have neutral on stop built into the gbox. so as soon as you pull up, it chucks it into neutral. soon as you put the foot on the go pedal, it puts it into gear. barely noticable, but saves petrol

its similar to the cylinder deactivation. at a constant load, cylinders are shut down, soon as you put the foot down, the ecu starts them back up again. its done in a fraction os a second, and isnt even noticable.

this is the reason why we(well, the yanks lol) can keep building on engine sizes. i mean, chevs new 6-7 litre engines have fuel efficiency compared to a small six when freeway driving, and light traffic driving, due to cylinder deactivation, but they still retain epic torque/power for when needed

lol but then again. if you have a 6-7 litre engine....what the eff for if you aint gonna push it hard.. so basically at the end of the day your fuel consumption is gonna be mighty high just like the toyota aurion with its 200kws and low as fuel consumption ratio.. but still why have a 200kw car if people gonna drive like a grandpa. like even if people try to drive it slow. it has all the power . doesnt that tempt us we are human
