The new 5-speed transmission have closer gear change lever movements and the gear changing operating conditions are easier. The 5th gear has an overdrive character, which gives advantages for the fuel economy, with about 10% lower fuel consumption. The transmission have reduced wear through 

transmission speed reduction and reduction of the noise level.

All this are attributes that make driving in the new Range Rover to be more comfortable and more enjoyable.
