CVT is also an automatic gearbox (full name is stepless automatic gearbox), which is characterized by adopting steel belt friction transmission, which can realize stepless speed change, has no friction feeling and is more fuel-efficient.
Advantages:
1. The speed change is smooth and there is no setback. Because the speed ratio of CVT gearbox is continuously variable, there is no more frustration.
2. The engine can be kept in the economic speed range. Because the speed ratio of CVT gearbox is continuously variable and can be linked with vehicle speed, the engine speed range is no longer limited by vehicle speed change. This is the biggest difference between CVT gearbox and gear transmission gearbox such as AT or DCT.
3. Better climbing performance. CVT gearbox will not have the problem of power interruption caused by other types of gearboxes when climbing, and the engine can output power well during the whole climbing process.
On the other hand, German cars also use CVT (Audi A4, B7 and B8 of 2004-2065438+05, and some A5, A6 and A8 models), and German auto parts companies also have CVT products (Bosch CVT).
