What is Rev Matching and How Does it Improve Driving Performance?

I've heard about a feature called Rev Matching in the Kia ProCeed, but I'm not sure how it works and why it's important. Can you explain it in detail?

Rev Matching is a feature that is designed to automatically match the engine speed to the transmission speed when downshifting. This allows for smoother and more efficient shifting, which can lead to improved driving performance.

As you downshift, Rev Matching helps to reduce the strain on vital components of the engine and transmission, making them more durable and extending their lifespan.

In addition to improving performance and increasing vehicle longevity, Rev Matching also allows for a more engaging and enjoyable driving experience. By maintaining consistent rpm levels, it helps to reduce jerky movements and allows for more precise handling.
