A new six-speed automatic transmission for automobiles offers an estimated 4% improvement in fuel economy compared to traditional four-speed transmissions in front-wheel drive cars.

Assume that the car will be driven for 120,000 miles over its lifetime of 10 years. The motorist can earn 6% per year on investments.
