Aisin gearboxes are equipped on many models at home and abroad: for example, Volkswagen has used some great gearboxes in China. Aisin 6AT gearbox is used in low-end cars such as Polo, LaVida and Bora, and the self-developed dual-clutch gearbox is used in mid-end cars Passat, Magotan and Tiguan. But if you look closely, you will find that Volkswagen adopted ZF's 8AT gearbox instead of its own dual-clutch gearbox on its flagship model Touareg.
In fact, Volkswagen has been purchasing Aisin's gearbox in the early days, but due to capacity problems. The insufficient supply of Aisin gearbox has become a stumbling block to mass production. Recognizing the seriousness of the problem, Volkswagen executives decided to produce their own gearboxes. Volkswagen does not have any controlled AT or CVT gearbox production, and the patents of these two gearboxes have been monopolized by giants. Volkswagen has shifted the focus of gearbox research and development to a dual-clutch gearbox with lower technical difficulty, which has not been widely used in civil mass production.
Interpretation of Volkswagen DSG gearbox.
Chinese literally means "direct shift transmission", also known as S-Tronic transmission or powershift, which has the advantages of faster shifting, greater torque transmission and higher efficiency than other transmissions. The disadvantage is that compared with the traditional automatic gearbox, because there is no hydraulic torque and no semi-linkage of MT, when the small displacement engine is matched with DSG, sometimes there will be insufficient low-speed torque, which is characterized by slight jitter at the start.
The French car is equipped with Aisin gearbox.
Almost all Peugeot and Citroen under French psa are equipped with Aisin gearboxes, ranging from Peugeot's 30 1, 308, 408, 508, 4008, 5008, Elysee, C4L, C5, Tianyi C5 and C6. Go to Citroen.
However, the legal system equipped with Aisin gearbox cannot be sold in China. The reason is: 1 Romantic design style of legal system: Citroen C5 steering wheel turns from the outer ring to the inner ring, the glass lifting button is placed on the center console, the electronic handbrake cruises at a fixed speed, and the horn is honked on the lamppost. 2. Engine displacement: 1.6T remains unchanged for thousands of years (1.8 belongs to 1.6 cylinder expansion). Today, more and more car companies are pushing 2.0T models. Without a larger displacement, people will doubt the power level of the legal system. 3. Authentic, without lengthening the wheelbase: In the domestic market, even the most classic BMW 3 Series has strengthened its efforts to cater to the China market, and it must be said that the legal system is stubborn enough. 4. The torsion beam is never hung independently: the chassis adjustment of French cars is first-class, but the suspension adjustment of the plates is no better, and many people give up the idea of buying a car as soon as they see the configuration table. 5. Ineffectiveness in marketing: ignoring the market demand of China, only playing with the romantic style of China people, and high pricing are all important factors.
Domestic cars are equipped with Aisin gearbox.
Almost all domestic cars equipped with Aisin gearbox belong to GAC, and their cars, SUVs and MPVs have been equipped with Aisin gearbox. However, due to the insufficient production capacity of Aisin, the output of Chuanqi models was reduced, and the Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi models produced later began to be gradually equipped with dual-clutch gearboxes. Although Aisin and GAC jointly established a gearbox factory this year, according to media reports, production will be delayed.
Geely's Job, Borui, Xingyue, Cargill, Geely ICON and some models of LECK 0 1, LECK 02, LECK 03 and LECK 05 also use Aisin gearboxes. Geely and Aisin even planned to set up a joint-venture gearbox company, but the cooperation intention went bankrupt because some details could not be reached.
Domestic Changan is also a big consumer of Aisin gearboxes, and its Yidong, Yidong DT, Yidong XT, Ruicheng CC, changan CS35, Changan CS35PLUS, cs55, Changan CS55PLUS, Changan CS75 PLUS, CS75, Changan CS85 COUPE and changan CS95 are all equipped with Aisin gearboxes.
All Toyota models are equipped with Aisin gearbox.
Aisin was founded in 1969, which is a joint venture between Aisin and Borg Warner, and belongs to Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd. First of all, the chairman of Aisin Group is a member of Toyota family, named Kenshiro, and is the uncle of Akio Toyoda, the chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation. In addition, Toyota Motor is also the largest shareholder of Aisin Seiki, accounting for 24.81%; The second largest shareholder is Toyota Industry, accounting for 7.68%, and the third largest shareholder is Denso Japan (a subsidiary of Toyota), accounting for 4.8 1%. Therefore, Toyota models are equipped with their own Aisin gearboxes.
In a word, the quality of Aisin gearbox is very reliable. Otherwise, there won't be so many car manufacturers flocking to it.
