I was surprised to see no mention of shifting or even the gear ratios in the owners' manual of my new car. I found the gear ratios by googling. Also, there is no upshift light on my car (to the delight of many, including myself).
What do they recommend? I feel that I might be shifting too early at times, unless I'm driving to have fun. Also, I noticed an interesting phenomenon, probably based on the generic shift points.
2nd gear ratio is approximately 1/2 of 1st gear
3rd is 2/3 of 2nd
4th is 3/4 of 3rd
5th is 3/4 of 4th
I could have swore my 1997 900 S had gear ratio info in the owners' manual.
