Are all manual-automatic transmission cars equipped with AT transmissions?
1 Answers
Manual-automatic transmissions are not AT; AT stands for automatic transmission. Below is an introduction to manual-automatic transmissions: 1. A manual-automatic transmission, also known as a manumatic transmission, combines manual and automatic transmission functions. 2. Based on an automatic transmission, it allows users to manually increase or decrease gears. Here is extended information comparing AT transmissions and manual-automatic transmissions: 1. AT is short for Automatic-Transmission. In Chinese, AT transmissions are referred to as hydraulic automatic transmissions. Hydraulic automatic transmissions achieve gear shifting through hydraulic drives and planetary gear sets, typically consisting of components such as a torque converter, planetary gear mechanism, shift actuators, shift control system, and shift operation mechanism. 2. A manual-automatic transmission is a gear-shifting device that integrates manual and automatic transmission functions, enabling drivers to freely adjust gears and engine speed based on their preferences. This technology was developed to enhance the fuel efficiency and drivability of automatic transmissions, allowing drivers to regain control over shift timing, which is usually determined by the computer, thereby improving driving operability and enriching the driving experience. When driving a manual-automatic car in manual mode, the driver simply shifts to manual mode and adjusts gears up or down according to speed changes. If the speed does not match the current gear, the transmission will automatically downshift; if the speed exceeds the current gear, the driver must manually upshift.
