SEAT has now made the mini Mii more city-friendly. Because the Spanish company's smallest now features an automated manual gearbox based on the five-speed manual transmission. Its new name: Mii Auto
Because there is no torque converter, the car does not crawl forward. It also does not have a 'Park' setting; you can only shift from Neutral (N), Drive (D) and Reverse (R). Switch the car on and first gear is automatically engaged. You have the option to manually select the gears via the lever.
The point about having an automated manual isn't about speed but fuel economy. Mii Auto returns an average consumption of 62.8 mpg (about 4.49 l/100km) and 105 g/km CO2. The manual Mii does 60.1 mpg (about 4.7 l/100km) and 108 g/km CO2.
