Are the automatic transmissions of Jetta and Bora the same?
1 Answers
Jetta and Bora do not have the same automatic transmissions. Both are from Aisin, but the Jetta uses a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the Bora is equipped with a 6-speed tiptronic transmission. Automatic Transmission: An automatic transmission is a gearbox that can automatically shift gears based on the vehicle's speed and engine RPM, as opposed to a manual transmission. Currently, there are four common types of automatic transmissions in automobiles: hydraulic automatic transmission (AT), continuously variable transmission (CVT), automated manual transmission (AMT), and dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Tiptronic Transmission: A tiptronic transmission is a gearbox that combines the functions of manual and automatic transmissions. This technology was developed to enhance the fuel efficiency and controllability of automatic transmissions, allowing drivers to manually decide the shift timing, which would otherwise be determined by the computer. This improves driving operability and enriches the driving experience.
