I quickly checked out the specs on some fuel-efficient cars and found about a 5 - 8% difference in estimated mileage between a standard transmission vs an automatic. With the clutch out, a standard gives a direct mechanical connection between engine and drive train. I can't figure out where this new device gets (what, 42%?) its reported advantage.

It's almost like energy from nothing.
