gen2 ISX50 and gen2.5 ISX50 gear shift time difference?
Does anyone know if this is true? I've read from an asian car magazine that the gear shift times for the gen2 and gen2.5 is different, being 1.4sec and 0.8sec respectively. Anyone know if this is true or not?

I was just reading the new car features and did not mention about a faster shifting. Here is the change that they made.
5. A760E/A760H/A960E Automatic Transmission
D position (fixed range mode) has been added to the automatic transmissions for this model. Downshifting
by operating the shift paddle switch while driving in D position will immediately cause the vehicle to enter
fixed range mode, which is the same as the S mode. As a result, engine braking and downshifts necessary
for acceleration are achieved even when driving with the shift lever in D position. For details, see page 16.
