Vehicle - fix costs: low |
| |
|
|
|
|
Diesel-mechanic transmission is roughly three times cheaper than hydro-mechanic transmission. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
|
|
Vehicle - running costs: significant reduction |
| |
|
|
|
|
Compared to other transmission systems, mechanic transmission substantially reduces energy costs but increases maintenance costs. No figures are available, but it is expected that there is still an overall reduction running costs. |
