At its launch, the LeSharo was fitted with a 57 hp 2.1L naturally-aspirated diesel inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual transmission; for 1984, a turbocharger increased the output of the engine to 75 hp. [3] The engine was later shared with the Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Comanche (Renault was the parent company of AMC/Jeep).
Automated manual transmissions can be semi-automatic or fully-automatic in operation. Several different systems to automate the clutch and/or shifting have been used over the years, but they will generally use one of the following methods of actuation for the clutch and/or shifting: hydraulic or electro-hydraulic actuation, [12] electro-mechanical, [13] pneumatic, [6] [14] [15] electromagnetic ...
