A transmission in which the highest gear ratio is less than a one-to-one ratio. This means the drive shaft turns faster than the engine crankshaft. The overdrive feature saves fuel and, because the engine runs slower, engine wear and noise are reduced.
Overdrive (on a car ) means the final drive (tailshaft) rotates faster than the engine. On 5- speed transmissions, 4th has a 1:1 ratio and 5th is in overdrive.
