    Auto Gearbox Question

    This might be the stupid question of the day? But here goes....... Reviewers of the latest HS PHEV talk about it having a 2 speed gearbox. Is that only when using the high voltage battery? Then does it switch to a conventional 7 speed DCT transmission when running on the petrol engine?
