Re: 'Digital Natives' are totally oblivious to how it works

In the UK automatics are more expensive to buy and generally use about 20% more fuel

The Honda Jazz claims to be more efficient:

Manual: 55.4 - 56.5 mpg

CVT: 57.6 - 61.4 mpg

But in my experience it's not the nuts and bolts that matters so much as the nut behind the wheel. Good acceleration sense and patience can save you more fuel than is lost through choice of transmission.
