Abstract
A gear-shift control system of an automatic transmission, in which gear shift schedule is appropriately changed-over in correspondence with the change of a road surface situation. Low-friction road surface detection device detects a low-friction road surface so as to select the gear shift schedule for the low-friction road surface adopted to start the motor vehicle with second gear. After the selection, a holding device holds the gear shift schedule for the low-friction road surface until an accelerator is pressed next.
