Abstract
This case study shows how the gear ratios of a manual gear box can be optimized to improve the fuel economy of a passenger car. This analysis is purely academic because it completely neglects all drivability issues and only focuses on the fuel economy of a vehicle that follows the MVEG-95 driving profile.
