CVT

日產與SUBARU合作開發CVT系統多年，目前日產的CVT系統已經被公認為是世界的領導者。

1992年1月 N-CVT─日產開始在日本銷售的March車上使用所謂的N-CVT
1997年9月 HYPER CVT 全球首次搭載於2.0L等級之FF車用CVT系統，Primera、Bluebird
1998年10月 HYPER CVT搭載於1.8L之SUNNY(相當於台灣的SENTRA 180)
1999年6月 HYPER CVT搭載於日本SERENA上(相當於台灣的Q-RV)
2002年 Xtronic CVT 採用大型鋼帶式的設計, 是專為VQ35這顆高扭力, 高馬力引擎所開發的，為全球首次搭載於3.5L等級之FF車用CVT系統。目前日本 Teana / Murano / March / Tiida / Serena均在使用。

a CVT never revs the engine. It keeps the engine at it's most efficient RPM. So the RPM is constant through the speed variations. Unlike an automatic where the RPM is not constant through speed variations.

But won't you lose the satisfying "VrooooooooooooooooooVROOOoooo­ooooooooooooVROOOoooooooooo" when accelerating? it will just be a constant tone :)

If ever a CVT equipped formula 1 car wins convincingly (assuming it's only a matter of time when an entirely new gen CVT capable of handling large amounts of horsepower will be developed)... two things will happen. All this uproar about people not wanting to watch mono-tone racing will cease. Racing is about winning, so if beautiful sounding cars become losers... every F1 team will either go CVT or they will ban it. Same way the rotary engine was banned at LeMans.

IT SHOULD BE A LAW TO PRODUCE CARS QITH THIS... AND LESS TAXES FOR THOSE WHO OWN'EM

Buy a manual and be done with it.

@vdub350 Yes you can driver one by just going to a dealer and pretend that you want to buy a car with CVT and they will give you a free test driver , and after that say ... oh i dont like it and go home. :-)

@skorpiius Well the satisfying "VrooooooooooooooooooVROOOoooo­ooooooooooooVROOOoooooooooo" depends on how much you want to service it and when it does need repair due to more wear on components, you end up going "Waaahh waaaaaahh waaaaaa" to the bank to take out a loan for repairs. Same goes for your brakes when you go through those. My brakes used to be changed every 4 months, now they are changed every 7 months. CVT is awesome!

@vdub350

think of as doing 20=>60kph-ish and a nearly constant rev. below 1500 rpm, or a diesel-electric train accelerating....tht's the closet thing i could think of abt a CVT car

[johnsenkenn]

A CVT according to test have a better MPG fuel than other gear.

[cobalt120]

That's true.

[Johnzx2]

The CVT cost a lot more in MPG fuel consumption... they don't tell that lol

[nandiito]

This kind of transmission is not new. I had a golf cart that had it, however, CVT is new to street cars
