FIGURE 9.6 A sketch of the maximum engine power provided by a four-speed transmission as a function of vehicle speed (solid lines). The dash–dot line is the steady speed vehicle power requirement. Contours of relative engine thermal efficiency for lesser power operation in fourth gear are shown as dotted lines, with the 100%peak being marked by +.
