How does the automatic gearbox EAT8 work on the Citroen C5 Aircross?

Model: Citroen C5 Aircross MK 1 - Years 2017-2022
Part: Transmission

In this video, we will see how the automatic transmission of the Citroen C5 Aircross works: when starting, we will move from the "P" position to the "D" position by pressing the brake pedal all the way down and the "Unlock" button on the gear lever. To switch to reverse, we will have to repeat the steps, and the green light must be on "R". Gear changes are made with simple presses; for a more dynamic driving experience, switch to "Sport" mode, while for maximum fuel efficiency, switch to "Eco" mode. To switch back to manual mode, press the "M" button, and you can use the paddles to change gears. To upshift, press the right paddle, to downshift, press the left one. To return to "D" mode, briefly move the gear lever forward.
