The Volvo I-Shift transmission is a single countershaft transmission with 12 forward gears and two reverse gears. Some vehicles have four reverse gears. The I-Shift is an automated mechanical transmission. The transmitted torque (both engine and braking) will be interrupted during gear shifting, in both driving and coasting conditions. There is no clutch pedal and the gearshift is controlled by the ergonomic gear selector. The I-Shift is available as an overdrive or direct drive transmission.
