In automatic transmissions, when invoking "kickdown", there is a slight time lag, as the tranny finds the right gear. On some cars, this process takes much too long. On others, it is extremely quick. The difference between various transmissions is profound.

How much of this typical lag does the Steptronic demonstrate? IOW, how quick does it find and engage that appropriate lower gear ratio compared to other trannies?
