 Hyundai 10-Speed Transmission Under Development |
|
Jan 23, 2012 - 5:44 PM - by AutoGuide.com

It's anything but a secret: more gears mean better gas mileage. Mercedes-Benz packs a seven-speed automatic into many of its cars, Lexus uses an eight-speed transmission in its LS sedans, but these amply geared boxes are generally the things of luxury cars until now.
We were the first to report that Hyundai had a 10-speed transmission in the works, having announced it at a tech briefing in Michigan. Hyundai has now confirmed that the transmission is under development, and will be in production as soon as possible, though details are still murky about which vehicles will get the technology. Given how aggressively automakers are pushing for better mileage year over year, it might make sense that the new gearbox would fall into Elantras or Accents rather than or alongside the luxurious Genesis and Equus. No doubt the transmission is being designed with the CAFE fuel economy regulations in mind that will come into effect fully in 2025 and expect a 54.4 mpg average rating.
We'll keep you up to date as more emerges.

Justin Bieber Autographed Hyundai Genesis Coupe to be Auctioned Off on Ebay |

Have you got Bieber Fever? If so, you'll want to bid on a Justin Bieber autographed car that's going to be on eBay this Friday.
We know, it's easy to make fun of all the Bieber fanatics out there, but the proceeds of this sale are going to a good cause. Beiber wants to raise money to refurbish a skate park in his hometown of Stratford, Ontario.
The car that's been autographed is a 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0 Turbo. Beiber took time out of his busy Christmas schedule when he was in town to sign the car, when he told Frank Sandola of Stratford Hyundai that he wanted the money raised from the auction to go to the skate park.
If you're wondering where the teen idol signed his famous moniker, you'll find it on the dashboard and the sun visor. If you're interested, it goes up for auction this Friday, January 20 and will be up for 10 days. There's no word if there will be a "Buy it Now" option, but we think it'll do pretty well without it.
