6-speed SMG in the RDX!!!!
Wow! Acura is listening, maybe we can see this tranny in the next CLS, a 6-speed SMG!!!
Here is the quote from RD-X:
The RD-X is designed to be powered by a unique 250 horsepower, 4-wheel drive, hybrid powertrain that combines a high-output i-VTEC(TM) engine with an Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) system. Under the hood is a high performance 2.4-liter, 16-valve, DOHC 4-cylinder engine coupled to 6-speed, close-ratio clutchless manual transmission, which drives the front wheels, while the advanced IMA system powers the rear wheels.
Inspired by Honda's Formula One race cars, the RD-X's clutchless manual transmission uses computer controls to operate the clutch for smooth engagement. Shifting is accomplished with a paddle shifter conveniently mounted close at hand on the center console while the close-ratio design of the gearbox helps the driver extract maximum performance from the engine.

Nice!
I can't wait to see their production version of that.
Im sure it will be nothing (and I hope it will be nothing) like the concept.
The concept is ugly, the technology is cool tho.
