UNDERSTANDINGTHECVT
The Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT) is a fully
automatic transmission that electronically monitors
vehicle system inputs/outputs and driver demands to
selectthedesireddriveratio.Unliketraditionalautomatic
transmissions,theCVTcontinuallyadjuststheoptimum

all operating conditions. As traditional automatic
transmissionsshiftupordowningears,theshiftingin

engineRPM,whichcausesaslightenergylossasthe
gearschange.Thegearchangescanbefeltbythedriver.
With the CVT, there is no energy transfer loss from
shiftingbecausethereisnogearshiftingupordown.
Acceleratinguptovehicleoperatingspeedissmoothand
continuous, uninterrupted by gear shifting. The same
holds true for coasting down to idle: smooth and
continuous. Unlike traditional automatic transmissions,
the CVT offers more responsive performance and
increased fuel economy.
The use of fluids other than
the recommended fluid could seriously damage
internaltransmissioncomponents.Pleaseconsultyour
