It allows you to coast for a few seconds if you let off the gas (as if the car was in N gear) but then engine braking kicks in. It's pretty much one pedal driving if you drive at a relaxed pace. Ofcourse if you drive like a lunatic, you need the brakes though.

I don't think this is an accurate comparison between AT and CVT. The AT car in the video was just demonstrating poor pedal control, not how good drivers would drive their AT cars. (i.e. who would change gears when passing another vehicle at high speed? Why would you have to brake before entering a bend when you are at the right gear?) CVT also makes the car sounds like it has slipping clutch. Toyota has just made the biggest mistake with their 2013 Corollas - switching to CVT.

The key bit is the cutaway with the pulleys. Here's what happens. Imagine you've got a pulley, with a V-shaped groove, and cut that in half. Half of it can now move in and out. Then there's a belt in there, and as the gap widens and closes, the belt moves farther from or closer to the axle, changing the ratio. A computer controls the pulleys and thus the ratio. It's a damn good idea but I kinda doubt its longevity... it relies on friction to transfer power, but fights friction to shift.

On top of that, I can get 40 MPG on the highway! Yes, that is not a typo. AT 70 MPH I have gotten 40 MPG consistently. When I run 75-78 MPH it drops to around 36. They are great!

The CVT transmission is not new technology. Its been used on scooters, mopeds, and go karts for years. They recently started using them on new cars. The 8 speed transmission is another attempt and comfort and efficiency. The debate here is whether CVT's are reliable. Back in the 60's GM introduced the Power Glide which was a 2 speed automatic as an attempt at smooth acceleration. I think CVT's have mastered smooth but I just cant see them in anything bigger than a sub-compact car. Cooper uses them in thier Mini's but if you have the turbo option you have to take a 5 speed manual because the CVT cannot take the torque... Do some research before you make condescending remarks.
@IIGrayfoxII9 жыл бұрын

I own a 2013 Camry Hybrid with CVT, after owning a Japanese manual car for 20 years. I have to say, I was very skeptical before I drove one, however even when I plant my foot, there is zero slip, and the feeling of zero gear changes is worth it.

@Tuneman1984 The point of the video is to look at the transmission. They simply exaggerate effects on suspension to show deceleration from braking and disengaging gears. Even with new transmission, an AT vehicle will still have to shift gears and therefore disengage from the drive shaft.

CVT, it's a garbage. I have a nissan sentra 2013 SR and have a drive issues and nissan can't find the problem. Sometimes when you press on the accelerator, the car in drive nothing happen.

Your gearbox goes into emergency mode. This is happens due to lack or poor service done to your cvt. You must change oil every at least every 15k km. In the cvt there's also 1 to 2 filters, you must change them too. And at the end you need to clean the radiator in the gearbox.

Even a bad driver can drive well with CVT-transmission. However a good driver will compensate the manual transmission's adversity by planning ahead not just the 100 feet of the bad driver, but a whole mile ahead. As such a good drive doesn't need to brake at all when driving on a winding road.

@control177 they are basically use the same however, each one serve a deferent objective. While the scooter's cvt helps to maintain lower maintenance cost and better fuel economy, the xtronic cvt adds better response, gear shifts that are shock free and then optimal performance at all conditions as opposed to normal expensive and (harsh) auto transmission. I'm not an expert but basically this is it.

how come when I drove a Nissan with a CVT it behaved like it had gears? under hard acceleration I expected it to stay at fairly high RPMs but instead it went up to redline then shifted down a lot then kept on rising to redline as if it had gears. from my driving experience I felt that I could have made the gearbox work much better for both speed and efficiency if i had manual control of the ratio.

Sport mode emulates shifting. So if you had the shifter in Ds, you will get the "shift"
@MrGencyExit649 жыл бұрын
Larommi71 You don't even need sport mode for that. The 4 cylinder Altima has a manual mode, but does not have the sport shift mode. You have to upgrade to the V6 model for that, and it's really just more aggressive ratio selection to keep the engine in its performance powerband rather than the usual fuel saving rules. In fact, you engage sport mode by moving the shifter into manual and then back into automatic.

I would think that because CVT's are always high on revs where the maximum torque is, the wear and tear is higher than in a vehicle that uses a double clutch gearbox or manual one. Other than that, efficiency wins in a CVT
@dml000711 жыл бұрын
Its not that the car slows down or the speed drops but, normally a car when it changes gears it pauses a second and does not go any faster threw the shifting which most people don't notice because it happens so quickly.

Nissan CVT's are the worst in terms of reliability and programming. No other manufacturer has as many complaints logged against them as Nissan has. JATCO is not reliable and Nissan has these transmission programmed to maximize fuel economy while making the car seem like it's 10 years old and falling apart with acceleration problems and lugging. Up hills the car sputters. Yeah, Nissan states this is NORMAL. I'll stick to planetary gear driven. Keep the CVT's in the hybrids where they belong.
@IHeartMoney9711 жыл бұрын
A CVT works like a bike except the fact that instea dof shiftingk to a bigger gear to go fastes the whole roller that the belt is on gets bigger. When they use the manual mode it is just programmed tomake it "seem" like you are shifting by raising and lowering rpm and the roller thats the belt is rolling on. So they arent actually shifts. Youusually have to use the manual mode when you need to go higher speeds from a cruising speed of about 60 or so. hope that helps

CVT is theoretically the superior of any transmission to ever be invented, whether it be for fuel economy or acceleration. People just don't like it because it takes out an element of driver interaction. But, since they don't want to admit that, they like to say that it sucks because it isn't as durable as other transmissions, which is true, but still.... With some more research into making them more durable and cheaper, CVTs will objectively be the better transmission.
@shadowfire2467 жыл бұрын
You don't know what you're talking about as long as you do your maintenance any transmission should have zero problems unless there is a defect cvt transmissions simply require a more regular service for them to operate correctly. I love going and shopping for a used car and asking people when the last time they had the transmission serviced.... generally the answer is "I don't know" aka "your supposed to do that?" Her dur dur

CVTs use hydraulic pressure to move the wheels. When you floor it, all does is keep spinning the pump and generating pressure. If you stop the pump or slow it down, the transmission puts on a halt. So, downhill it does slow it down a lot. But if you want to vehicle to keep going you have to have engine spin the pump. Therefor, there is no disconnect from the transmission ever unless you put it in neutral and in turn disconnect the pump from the axle. Smooth acceleration is true about these vehi
